ok lets see if me and frenzal can help you with your problems:
Flash89:
-take your car to another pits, for example wheslpool (sp)
-you dont need another front bar, just go buy some cableties from a hardware store, and drill some holes into your bumper (or use the ones already there) and cable-tie the bumper down, do this about 4-6times and the bumper will not move
-your rear parcell shelf, im not 100% sure what is wrong with it maybe if you could post some photos, it would help me and the other members advise you what to do
now
Chi100188, i would personal not take your car to pedders, i've hear many bad stories about them from friends who have uses them.
now IF your tein are COILOVER, there is no need to book your car into any workshop, me and frenzal can help you change it from hard to soft.
here are some photos of how i do it on my coilovers (they are d2 but tein are very similar).
here is frenzal showing you where to look in your engine bay
now frenzal has the little tool which you put into the coilover to adjust it, ur one may already be in your coilover
now you just drop it in, and turn it the how many circles or clicks to make it soft or hard. now if your not sure which one to turn it, turn it right all the way and push down on the car, then turn it left all the way and push down on the car. which one feels the easier to push down is the softer setting on the coilover
now with degrease, its very simiple. go buy any type (they are all the same), get an old rag. basicly spray the degrease on the spot which you want to clean then wipe ir with the rag and if it is very dirty give it abit of musle(sp)-power, then spray off with a hose or wipe of well with a wet rag
I hope me and frenzal where help
cheers michael
