Message	Sorry to hear about your troubles. Hopefully the damage is limited to what you can see. I dont know that Cometic is junk in general, but at the minimum people report a lot of leakage due to sub-optimal surface conditions. At any rate, make sure the studs you are using are specific to the ZX. There were some being sold that were just a bit short and may not have grabbed sufficiently (Was a bit of controversy over this a couple of years back). Also make sure the washer diameter is the same size as OEM so they do not dig into the heads and loosen up. Good luck and thanks for posting about your experience.
