Re: Upgrade to LCI bonnet and M Sports bumper after hitting monkey on NS highway – E9
Hi
Like to check with u ppl. Car still in the workshop. Should be able to get it back tmw.
As i have also changed the side skirt for the LCI one. Was told by the workshop that when installed the LCI side skirt, there is a slight bigger gap between the side skirt and the door i think..... Was told that need to change some inside bracket to 'solve' the alignment issue. Is this true? Or anyone can advise?
One more qns. Itchy side. read that the radio and air con control knob can be easily changed right? Is this easy? wanted to change to the LCI one with those chrome one. how much will it cost?
Thank you.

I did not change my side skirt.
But if some brackets can solve the gap problem, it should be very cheap.
Radio knob u should call up stockies to check for the best answer

Hi Ppl
Just collercted my car on sat. Sianz. got a few issue.....
1. Now the car direction indictor light left and right when signaling the speed will be very fast. why? History: The workshop told me when they installed the LCI rear lighting, the reverse light dun work. Installed back the old light it work. Then they did some mod of the wiring on the LCI light and its working now. But now i face with a super fast speed indication lighting and a light error on my car. Just told by friend this morning that its something to do with some wiring resistor not added or removed?
Here is a video of the light speed

2. The side skirt not aligned. Something to do with the bracket. So need to change it.

Hi Cochran,
You may need to get your rear tail-lights program properly after upgrading to the LCI tail-lights.
There's a FL guy that knows how to do it, PM me if you need the contact.
The side skirts do require a LCI bracket, but shouldn't jut out much if you don't mind it that much.

I happen to like the speed ur signal is. Ha ha.
Sorry I have no idea how to solve this.
The side skirt brackets and clips are as cheap as $12 from stockies.
PM me for the contacts

Upgrade to LCI bonnet and M Sports bumper after hitting monkey on NS highway ...
Don't think its as simple as the clips. You may want to go down Eng Soon to look for Michael.
Ask him to help you compare the LCI and PFL side skirt bracket, that's a high suspect.
I am using the PFL bracket, juts out a little but I can live with it. Do let us know if you found the solution later.
