i tried to find an install guide for the bumper, but all i found was a Japanese version. it doesn't have a diagram showing the oil cooler duct needs to be removed... hm... does anyone have the installation guide? i bought this used

in any case you do need to take it out. it'll give you better cooling and make it look better/fit better.

Looks really good, why did you have such a hard time with the fog lights? Did you have to get them extra or were they included with the bumper? And this is the OEM and not a rep right?

haha... i wanted that long time ago, actually i wanted the MS sides more than the fronts before, but if you look close enough, my aero front mud flaps are all scraped to bare plastic already, i wuddn't risk scraping a $750 sides, so i think i'll stick my worn side aero flares for now haha...

^dude... tell me abt it...
i had another guy did the job for me... ******* stupid.... well he mounted it on... barely... the bolts on the underside weren't even put on. the bumper was kinda squishy and the underpanel was flapping around on the highway. and that's why i have a big ******* hole on the under body tray right now. arghhh
