Default AP2 bumper on my AP1

Hi all, Tomorrow afternoon I am going to buy an AP2 bumper
I am going to get it repainted GPW; was wondering if there is anyone on the board that can help me install the bumper or show me how?

I was told some slight modding is involved so no stress cracks near the headlights show

Any help/advice is appreciated

You need to grind down the edges of your reinforcement bar as well.

Yeah its definitely a must. The shop that installed my bumper failed to do so. I had to pull it off myself and do it because dimples were showing up. They went away soon after.
