Sport to steel bumper conversion.

[matthewharrison]

I know some here have probably done this, but I am more or less looking for a parts confirmation on what I'd need to do this.

Thinking of converting to steel bumper & colour matching it on my Sport. My current bumper is pretty much toast, the snowbanks started it & have almost finished it. The painting & installing is no problem, just wondering if anyone that may have done this already might be able to help point out what parts I'd need off this diagram. I've made my best guess by putting the one piece & two piece diagrams side by side, but insight from someone that has done it may be helpful.





TIA

I have done the steel bumper to sport bumper conversion but not the other way.

As indicated by the pic's above it fairly straightforward

The diagram in your original post is what I would work from.
Realize on the sport you need the metal crash bumper that bolts under the plastic on the steel one you do not

You need the upper valence and the steel bumper plus the plastic piece under the bumper.

Fogs and wiring. If you have them transfer and most bolts move between units.

It simple and if you can change oil or service your transmission you can do the conversion. Mine took about 3 hours and I was not in a hurry.
