Good question. I only removed 6 bolts, the ones that are the heads are visible from inside the car looking at the frame. I drilled out the center punch marks then used an impact driver to loosen them. The frame is being powder coated and the hardware, bolts springs etc., have been zinc plated. I should have left the bolts in. Way too much work to get them out.

On another subject, what years did they use this scrip badging on the spider? Did it go on the trunk?

Cheers,

George
