Well, I have been talking about it for well over a year now, but its finally time for me to change my stang up a bit. I finally got my bumper all painted and ready to go. I am going to attempt to install it tomorrow after school, but I was wondering if there was anything that i should know before doing the swap that might help me out or save some time.

I dont have the funds for the gt fender linings currently so i am going to have two small gaps on the outside edge of the lining that i will improvise a fix for. I will put the order in at a dealership near me. Mostly I just dont want to wait any longer to have my bumper!

I got a few other goodies that were painted as well and they are going to completely change my car, but for now a teaser

a 10mm swivel will make your life much easier.

you need a rivet gun and a rotary tool

now say i don't particularly have access to the rivet gun, cant i just either screw the turn signal assembly in or silicone it to the bumper?

peet, do you mean a ratchet set?

Update, today was pretty productive. Got started on the bumper after school. After a few trips to the store to get random parts and bolts that we didnt have, the bumper is on! And guess what........... it looks amazing.

So many thanks to my bro, Scott. There is no way that I would have ever got this thing installed if it wasnt for all of his help.

Still have to get the chin on there along with a few other mods but I couldnt be happier with how the bumper changed my stang. I cant stop grinning everytime I look at it. Let me know what you think?

ur welcome bro. the install wasn't bad, suspension and engine performance mods is lot more hassle than this.lol
