Well i have some ugly scratches on my front bumper and im about to buy a new one (they come painted when you buy oem right?), and the stealership charges like 400 to put on a front lip so god only knows what it would cost to get a front bumper put on. Before i start looking for another, cheaper, place to put it on, im just wondering how hard it possibly could be. Its not a fiberglass bumper, its just the stock, oem, bumper that im talking about. Is this something do-able

 

This is just a basic bolt on job.

I've done it a few times myself with no problem.
A second set of hands is nice but not critical..just to guide into position.

 

I just installed my Stillen and it took me about 20 min....piece of cake.

You need some jack stands to make it easier. There are about 8-10 bolts under the bottom you need to remove. Tehn, you can peel back the inner fender liner to get to the two screws on each side that hold the bumper on the sides.

 

It is VERY easy. You don't even need to jack up the front of your car. I can do it in about 15 minutes. I took pics of all the bolt locations and will writeup how to do it. Just look for my projector retro DIY this week.

 

alright thanks guys... im sure the dealer would have tried to charge me about $2k for the bumper + install if i went through them.
