Ok, so I'm starting to plan out installing this bumper thing sitting on my garage floor. Who's gonna be the first sucker to post a "how to" for the tricks of getting this thing installed?





Anyone made a list of "misc hardware" needed to attach this thing? Does one exist already?



So far, the biggest (most unique?) item I've seen is the giant-headed rivets attaching the top of the nose to the aluminum framework. I imagine there are gonna be some other unique fasteners under there as I start to disassemble the current nose.



Thanks for any help. Call me ****, but I hate getting stuck in the middle of a project 'cause I need a 12 mm coarse threaded twisty thing with a 90-degree bend that's only sold on the third tuesday of each month in downtown topeka, KS.

PS Looking forward to your pics, maverick.

I have decided to go a different direction with my FD and will be selling the bumper I bought from this group buy. Both oil cooler ducts are included. Same price as the group buy price. Email or call if you are interested.

ps- Prefer local pickup (I'm in Houston). I will ship via freight at the buyer's expense.

the rivets are the only thing, they are super common, you can probably go to a auto body shop and just ask to buy a few. If the clips on your bumper are rusted you might need some grip-a-clips and bolts, should be 6mm, again a auto body shop or supply house will sell that.

I'd like to hear how well the undertray/splash pan fits with the 99.

There are two people emailing me that the bumper does not fit properly. The bumpers I test fitted is from the same mold as the ones I ship out. So it's very unlikely that the ones I ship out do not fit the same as the ones I test fitted. But just in case the bumper is indeed defective, below is what you need to do:



Take some photos and email me. If the bumper is indeed defective, I will replace it and take care of the return shipping and shipping charges back to you. But if the bumper fits fine after I test fit it on a car, you will have to pay for all the shipping and the labor of test fitting the bumper in the amount of $160.



1. Take some photos and show me where the problems are.

2. Use a whiteout pen and sign your name on the area where the problems are before you return it. That way you can make sure I am test fitting the bumper you return.



After I get the bumper back, I will test fit it on the same silver car of which I taken the photos from and take pictures for you. If the bumper is defective, I will test fit the replacement before I ship it to you.



Thank you.



Chuck Huang
