    I think you'll do more harm than good trying to do that

    Best thing you could do is find the same panel from a 4runner. Think its like 96-02 or something. The film on the back of those are clear or white instead of the Orange

    Do NOT scratch those, you will ruin it. I promise you. Just keep what you got, looks fine to me.

    Try checking the sway bar endlinks. They caused me a fair mount of squeaking and clicking when they wore out.

    I somehow knew that I blew my CV :( heard a weird noise last night and checked it just now. The boot isn't broken but the clamp loosened up. Is this repairable, if not what CV do you guys recommend?
