well, i got a new job, so im gonna start fixing all the problems with my car.

first up is a new Radiator/Core support.

Should I:
A. Pay a shop to install it
B. Have someone on this board do it for a nominal fee or trade off.
C. Figure out how the fuck to do it on my own.

Feedback Please =]

Do it on your own. Just cut the old one off and bolt the new one on.

that, then if you find yourself in a situation where you may think you cant do it shop. but i would recomend trying to do it yourself first.

Removal: run down, drill out spot welds, unbolt

Install: 1. Bolt new one on
2. align
3. align
4. align
5. (Some say this is optional but I always do it) Weld the holes back up from the spot welds
6. Check alignment
