Can't really tell from the finished pic but the big dent is now missing from the passenger side. I'm happy.

It was actually one of the easiest things I've ever done. 4 nuts and the 2 bolts on each side are attached by a steel plate. All you do is un-plug the fog light harness, take all 4 nuts off, hold up on the bumper and slide the 4 bolts out. Lining up the new bumper was a little tricky, but once you have it close you can slide 2 bolts at a time in each side. Hold up on the bumper while you tighten the nuts for adjustment and you're done.

I actually think the de-badging took more time and sweat. Not to mention half the skin off my fingers. My cordless drill was dead so I barely got to use my eraser wheel.

Looks good--gotta love the clean look.
you should get the other one fixed then repaint it and sell it. That way you can make your money back with a little extra cash on the side.

Technically yes, 5 of the 6 seat backs do recline... :rockit:
The only one that doesn't is the center front, which no-one uses anyway.

Thank you, wish I had the CTD though. That would make the icing on the cake, or the stains in the seats anyway...:burnout:

Just a thought, you could repair the old bumper, paint it. Stick on to see if you like it. Then sell off the odd bumper. I think a painted bumper would look good. Just thinking out loud....
Looks great...
