Is this Covered under Warranty?
Please no flames, what I did makes it sound like I am a dumbass, and basically, for what I did I am a dumbass but I am wondering if this is covered under the warranty. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/IMG]
I completely f**ked up the DIY clear corners. I have a 4 dr 02 LX and it was impossible to open the headlight up (I couldnt find the 5 black clips nor could I pry the headlight open) [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] . Then I couldnt get the f*cking front bumper aligned right [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] (to the point where the screws in each fender well go in) and then I forgot to put in 1 screw
. 1 screw! and I was going about 90 on the freeway and the right side of the underbody (which I guess was hanging down a little bit w/out the screen) pushed into the ground. So now I have no place to put the screw because the plastic is shaved off (from the rubbing). Does anyone have any suggestions? I am going to have to take my car into the dealer and it is probably going to cost a shitload because it looks like this part of the underbody is connected to the whole car body. I am f#$ked. And I didnt even get my corners cleared! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG]
Any suggestions? Is this covered? How much will it cost if it isn't?

its not covered since it was your fault unless you have really nice honda dealer like me. and the sedan headlights are a bich to clear ive done about 10 sets of headlights and sedans are 100000x harder youve gotta take out bulbs put in over at 350 for 8 min and let glue moisten then pry like hell b4 they cool down starting with flattipped screwdriver at the round edge near turnsignals. then use 2-3 more screw drivers and work your way arpound leave on in move 2 inches sycik another in move 2 inches stcik andother that way prying it al;l the way once you hgo about 12 inches the whole thing should pop and you can simply pull it apart the clean off excess goop so that it doesnt stick to chrome while inserting chrome back in and then silicone seal with as much silicone as possible w/o having goo everywhere. for assistance pm or email me rijowysock@aol.com

BTW if honda wont warantee your bumper parts simply get some zip ties (black and zip tie the beast together anbd if there nothing to hook onto drill 1/8 in holes approx 1/2 in away from ecge and that will work fine (will hold up better then stock screws but harder to take aparet when disassembly is needed)

wow, sounds like you really stuck it in your own *** on this one. that sux man. anyway, i highly doubt that honda will cover your screw up completely. you may be able to talk them into half maybe more but i wouldnt count on it. they will see you tried something, seeing a bolt is missing and the bumper is not aligned properly. and if they dont notice it or think it was thier fault or are just really nice and decide to cover it all, then you are one lucky dude.
hope all goes well.
