Default RE: GT front bumper ????

when i did my bumper i didnt realize that the linings were different and until like now basically, lol.... all i did was line up the stock 1 to the bumper and re put the screw or whatever to it and there is a little gap but not noticable... unless i wind up changing my bumper again, its staying that way, lol.

Not trying to steal the thread, but do you have to do anything wierd like this when you replace the rear V6 bumper for the GT one?

It depends....both the GT and V6 rear bumpers are a direct fit, no messing with splash shields, fender liners, etc....BUT.... the bumper skin has hard plastic reinforcements behind it. If the GT bumper has had those removed, you'll need to take those off your old bumper by drilling the rivets and move them to the new bumper.

The only other difference is you'll need an extra push-pin type body fastener for the center of the rear bumper. The V6 has two of these to attach the bottom of the bumper, the GT needs three.
