matty1 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 nice looking civic there buddy and some good first mods to.the rear bolts are a pain, on both my previous civics they sheared off. if it does shear off, on the other side there is a welded nut. you need to cut that off. i use a grinder with a 1mm disc, cuts through it like butter and then once you've cut that off you pop the rest of the bolt out and job done. not to sure what size bolt and nut you need, i think its m8 or an m10. hope that helps.
