Yea I used a gasket paper just to be on the safe side I understand what your saying about the bolts to I went and brought longer ones for mine still not happy with it.
I remember when I got my first sportif and this was my favorite car! Ive now moved up to a glanza after 3 years and it still is! I love it! Get some updates! Lol I miss the updates!
I heard them Apache go through bottom ends quite often a civic would be a better choice mate! if your getting the one pictured above it lose the stickers imo ;)
