New Bumper On!
well, guys, today my buddy came over and removed my bumper and put the new one on! it got a little hard on one part cuz i didn't have drill to get the rivets out..(actually i do have drill but i have lost the charger somewhere in the house) butmy buddymanaged to get those out and used some other screws and all done.. i took a couple pics.. i helped a little but he did the most of it.. but if i need to do this ever again, i can do it by myself easily!

Judging by the pics, it looks just like new. Congrats. Got a good buddy there to help you with the replacement. You gotta take him out for a beer or something.

RE: New Bumper On!
Congrats doodad, my situation got worse. I crashed at the track a few days later, the track wasn't prepped nor is it ever and when I hit second my rear tires broke lose and went straight for the wall. Let off the gas tried to correct and crossed over to the other side and clipped my front fender/bumper. Got my hood too and my front LCA... I'm probably looking a $2,000 in repairs now but was lucky nothing extremely major was damaged... I was able to drive the car home but ruined a $200 tire.

shop for stock parts man.. if you try to upgrade, you are looking some serious money.. stock parts are cheaper.. unless you got enough $$ to spend..
i like the stock bumper and i went with it.. i will lower the car and stock bumper will look better!!
good luck on this and keep us updated!
