Uh, yeah. +100.
Especially if you are doing anything that will take you more than one session. I've seen a couple of folks end up with a pile of bolts and bits and they couldn't remember where they went or how they went on.
This is also doubly especially true if you ever are tackling a restoration project. Bag and label everything with pictures of all bits at every point along the way. (You don't really need to do that with your clam off project but if they're digital, they're free).
IMHO, it should be very simple to perform work on the Exige or Elise if one is willing to use the resources here on the forum to their advantage and just try. How many times have we seen a thread with "Help. I'm stuck with XYZ job" and the information is freely distributed. I feel much more confident working on the Elise than I do on my Civic only because I have the forum knowledge that I can turn to for assistance should I get stuck.
