one more question... here's what the ebay page said at the bottom.

Removal of the bumper reinforcement bars maybe necessary to mount/hang front and rear bumpers, this is done at the buyer/owners on risk, we do not accept liability for injuries resulting from customization of buyer/owners car, this is done at their own risk. You, as the buyer, are responsible for complying with any/all local, state, and federal laws.


Did you guys have to remove the bumper reinforcement bars?

Look, this should give you an idea of how easy it is to do this conversion. I put my whole front end on in a lighting & rain storm "out side" by myself, took me about an hour to do it since I already had the stock front end removed for paint. The only thing I did not do that day was the wire splicing to hook up the foglights since, "water and electric don't mix well"

Jay, my instuctions on page 14 will walk you through it. Especially about the 2 outside bolts in the fender. Cutterwolf used them and it helped him out. Call me if you have any questions or problems.

Jay, its a peace of cake bro. Just follow Mellow's instructions it totaly strate forward, all I did was to read threw them once or twice and then when I did the conversion I did not even have the instructions with me to refur to and I had no problems at all.
