You know getting the plastic vinyl peice off that go around the back of the car and around the 3rd break light. Order my headlights and fog lights last night. I gotta see how much its going to cost to fix my saturn. And run it through exspection then i can start saving up on my new wing.

I dont see this plastic piece you're referring to. I know what piece you're talking about but I'm not familiar with the sols and I dont see it there.

In my 01 Civic, I had to take all of the plastic pieces around it out first because the rear one was partially underneath the side rear window ones.

i like the ambers. not to make more work for you, but how are all the bushings looking? since you are replacing the control arms you may want to do the bushings at the same time since you will have it all apart anyway.

you might also want to think of cleaning all the wheel wells and suspension parts, even underneath the car, and spray it with some black paint or some sort of undercoating

the ones on the sol are pretty easy. i got my brembo ones for 100 shipped i think. a lot of people have problems with some of the screws though, so you might need an impact gun or torch to loosen them up.

 

i have some brembo pads that i think will fit your sol if you're interested later on
