Spoon Subframe Collars instructions translation
Can someone please translate these?
Usually they are self-explanatory but I really have no idea what's going on in the last two images.
Would be nice to know all the notes about this to do it correctly.
Thank you!

The last 2 pics says:
- if the fitment to the frame is too tight, you can use a belt sander to trim the sleeve a bit
- if the fitment to the subframe is too tight, you can use a dremel to trim the subframe a bit
- if the fitment to the frame is too tight, you can use a belt sander to trim the sleeve a bit
- if the fitment to the subframe is too tight, you can use a dremel to trim the subframe a bit
For this work, you've to lower the subframe by 5cm. Please use Honda service manual for the basic procedures for this work, and follow the following points.
1. on the steering universal joint, mark the steering arm with a red marker pen, (so that you know the exact position when putting it back), and loosen the bolt to disconnect it
2. make sure you put the correct sleeve to the correct place according to the illustration, matching the no.
3. after putting the sleeve on, put back the subframe evenly on both sides. please use a 2 point lift for the work to be done safely.
4. after taking the bolts out, look for any bent or damaged bolts, change them when needed, clean the threads and put grease on the threads.
(!! my opinion: according to service manual, we're suppose to use new bolts for the subframe, please look at service manual for the correct procedure)
Notes.
after driving for 500km, please re-torque the bolts to spec

Thanks for the help.
I guess the only thing I'm not 100% on right now is if the thick side goes up as in pic #5.
Going to install soon. Seems none of the other stuff goes past common sense suggestions.

i don't know how come some people make a judgement based on the materials without paying attention on how much time and effort they spent on a product. do you think we spent $35000 on our s2000 for just raw materials and labor?
