Default New bumper on!

Got it on and man it became a pain in the *** at the end. I think it looks good, but as of right now the fogs are not wired up, I didn't have time because I have class in 30 minutes. Any ideas on where to run the wires through the firewall? Also don't mind the dust, haven't had the time to wash it



It is tough to tell, but it looks like a little different shade. Won't know for sure until I wash it off tomorrow and look in the bright sunlight. When you sit right next to the fenders and look it looks spot on.

I like the corners of the bumper with the fog lights but I don't like the new lower valence opening. It looks like something is missing. Not to mention the opening needs something in it to keep the rocks from destroying your radiator.

You're missing the radiator "belly pan" Part # 5R3Z-17626-BA... that's why it looks like something's missing.

You'll also need the necessary fasteners (N801169S900 PACK OF EIGHT SCREWS) & (W705992S441 PACK OF FOUR INSERTS).
