Kit is in.

Nice packaging in double boxes



Front bumper only took a couple hours to fit









Slight gap under hood



It took me 2 more hours just to figure out how to remove the rear bumper. I got the new one on but was having problems finding a way to screw in the sides. So I put the old one back for now. Didn't even get to side skirts yet.
Where the hell do these parts go? The one in front especially

RE: Kit is in.

Except for that gap under the grille the front looks to be a very nice fit. I'm jealous since I love those fronts.

No clue what that other part is.

I am so jealous... and you've got me stumped regarding those "extra" parts.

Thanks Yuvi. You don't really see the gap as the front end is pretty low. I did the lights myself.

RE: Kit is in.

Looks real good. It took my body shop more than two hours taking bumper down, replacing HID headlights and putting it back on with my help. You did all that in 2 hours by yourself? Wow.

Shouldn't you paint it first before installing? I thought it would be easier to paint that way.

Thanks, it came from Felix/Euro-Passion.

thnx buddy...btw on the front bumper there is slightly a gap between the front grill and the bumper.
what I can give u a suggestion is, cut the middle part and fill with fiberglass.
do prep and prime too.

you are such a genius guy buddy.u can put the front bumper by yourself..ckckck [:)]
