    Strut tower guide a hole bent

    Hi all,


    I noticed after removing the front suspension that both guide holes on the strut towers are bent upwards. Don't know how this happened. Putting on coil overs today, should I fix this first and flatten it before I finish the install?


    Thanks in advance!

    I would flatten them and install the XI reinforcement plates. They're really cheap.
