zip ties. The JCW '12 bumper mounted in 8 places. This one mounted in 5. We created a 6th. The other 2 we really couldn't do anything about.

I can bring all my automotive wiring stuff to the Dragon if you want to mess with it. I wouldn't mind spending a few hours on Saturday morning or whatever seeing if we could make it work. Between you, me and Chris, we ought to be able to red-neck it together real good!

Zip ties FTW! I always bring a couple dozen of them with me in my Dragon Emergency Bag.

R56 should work with R56 - if these '09 lights don't mate with the '12 wiring harness...

You wouldn't think that if you ever tried to put a AP1 bumper on an AP2.

The AP1 front quarter panel mated up on my AP2... granted AP1 silverstone was a tad different from AP2 silverstone... My '09 bumper is IJN green instead of BRG. Whatever...

My Ings+1 rear bumper was originally cut for an AP1. Chip kinda got it to fit on his 05 but I have never been able to get it to fit right on my car. It has been hopeless since I got rear-ended in July of 2014. The body shop guys tried really hard to get it right but it still pops out on the passenger side.
