    i helped massage sean (oneiguy's) bumper over his perrin front mount. its essentially just a bunch of cutting/fitting, cutting/fitting, cutting/fitting, etc.

    Cohen and I cut my bumper one time and it fit...templates FTW.
    No template = cut/fit/cut/fit/cut/fit/cut/fit

    yea..i'm not really worried about the part behind the fogs...i'll just cut out whatever doesnt need to stay to hold the fog covers in

    yea..btw..i hate the fact that this ebay kit came with no instructions..it came with like an 8 inch long flew coupling and it took me hours of pondering i couldnt figure out where it went,then i got on the site and saw where you had to cut one of the upper pipes and put it in the middle..also,has anyone else had a problem with the passenger side ic hose not clearing the hood?

    got the bumper back on..looks like crap because the bumper was already split under the drivers side fog light cover and the front mount bows out that corner slightly so now you can see like a 1 inch gap and the fog light cover doesnt fit :(
