Ok I need some help. I need to get some help on the installion of my MM CC plates. I called around and i got quoted like $185-325 not including alignment. I've been told that it's pretty simple to install but I don't have the HUEVOS (Balls) to do it. I'm willing to buy lunch or something+ 20 bucks or so. Thanks ...

correct me if I'm wrong (I've never done it) , but jack each side up, unload the suspension on that side, maybe you have to undo the bottom of the shock and then you can pull the factory C/C plate off, replace it, put shock back on, or is there more to it?

I just did these on my car a few months ago, your gonna have to take the front shocks off of the car. The MM cc plates have to be put in on the inside and outside of the tower. So if you can use a lift, it would be a lot easier. Also, note which plate your putting on which side of the car(i.e. the driver's side plates and different than the passenger side's). You will not be able to align the car properly if you put the plates on the wrong sides, and then your gonna have to do the whole thing over again to swap em. You might have to take the rotor off. I did, but I was also removing my factory springs. The shocks may be able to be removed with the rotor on.
