Inven Front Bumper

Hey anyone buy these and know how the fitment is trying to install at home? Anything you have to cut or saw off? Looking to get this soon just wondering what to expect...

Not sure, it can't be that much work.. I had mine installed at a shop full of ding bats so u prolly know more than they do.. Also, it depends on who you bought it from and the material. They say fiberglass is a lot harder to work with

I recently did this with one from Arch industry...

You have to cut all of the screw holes, side light holes and grill insert holes... not a huge problem they are somewhat pre-defined so you don't have much guess work todo but I wouldn't go crazy with the holes for attaching to the car (they aren't exactly in the right spot) after that you might end up with some gap around the headlights, to fix that I had to do some cuts around the headlight and fender corner, I did it myself with a friend at home... it came out pretty good I think.



hopefully that helps a little,

^ you should shave the crash beam or else if you scrape or something (whatever you do that may cause the bumper to be pushed in) it'll get a dimple on the poly that may crack the paint..
