VICTORY!!!! 3 days ago was when i got that freakin screw off. it was EXTREMELY exciting and a very happy experience. i used a metal cut off wheel to make a slot and unscrewed it with a flathead screwdriver. this worked brilliantly. i didn't have a dremel tool or anything of that sort, though. i used a conversion kit for my drill and the kit consisted of a big screw and two washers that held the cutoff wheel on. i also needed to buy another cutoff wheel because the one that was in my basement had a smaller center hole and the conversion kit's screw thing was too wide.
- conversion kit: about $7.00
- metal cut off blade: about $3.00
- getting that goddang screw off: priceless
the valence is at the shop, they have it straightened out, and are ready to paint it. they needed the first parts of the brake ducts (the painted part) for driver and passenger, and the fog lights (passenger and driver), so i brought them over there and what could he possibly tell me to make me as shocked as i was when i left there? APPARENTLY, the is a e30 318is in a JUNKYARD near there :mad:. i could've scored the front valence for FORTY DOLLARS!
