I bought a new front bumper cover about a year and a half ago after the original was cracked on a deer's head.:sad:

The chrome was starting to peel on the original grille so I also bought a new black Iron Man grille and billet aluminum grille insert. I painted all of the plastic parts body color not long after I purchased them but I have not had time to install anything until now.

I decided to order new plastic fasteners for those that looked like it could be hard to remove without destroying them. What a pain in the butt trying to decipher the parts diagrams! I think I got everything I wanted but I won't really know until they get here.

I ordered them from one of the sites swshawaii recommended to others. Saved a bunch of money over normal dealer prices. Thanks! :haveabeer:

I'll update with new pics once I get everything installed.

Just finished installing the new bumper and grille about half an hour ago. It went a lot smoother than I expected. I didn't start working on it until about 1:30.

I still have a new hood edge moulding to put on but I don't have it painted yet. I may decide to leave the chrome one on. It doesn't look as bad as I thought it might.



I will get some better pictures in the daylight but it probably won't be tomorrow. Temp is supposed to be in the single digits tonight. Brrrrrr.

Love it! Completed pics would be great. :supercool:
 
Thanks. When I bought the billet grille kit it came with inserts for all of the openings but it looked a little too busy for my taste.
