I am about ready to have my gt bumper cover painted. The shop said they can install it after its painted for $75. I was thinking of saving the $75 and doing in myself. Has anyone here installed one of these or know of any online guides? I have been trying to find one online.

the only hard part is removing the fender covers and thats pretty much it, just find the mounting points and it comes right off

+1 .....half hour 45 minute job

very easy,,,did mine myself in my garage,,,Although,,I had to remove some old pieces from my stock bumper to put on the new one,,your situation might be different ..but a very easy job

What pieces did u have to remove and move over?? I have the bumper cover and that's it.

I got my bumper from a new takeoff place. It was missing the black re enfocement brace that is a part of the bumper. I noticed the difference when I took the old one off and campared them side by side, (some newer ones may or may not be like the one I had) I had to drill out the rivets and re use the brackets,,I used drywall screws but I am sure new rivets would be "more professional" As I say your new bumper may have all this already and it wont be a problem.
Be sure to save those irritating little tree like clips to use when re installing the bumper..

and it hs been two years now and the bumper is still there,,safe and sound...

My gt bumper doesn't have a brace on it. My gt bumper is an 06-07 and my car is an 09 I hope it works.

just compare the two side by side,,,remove from the stock one what the new one doesnt have....if they are the same ...dont worry

[techguy.ml]

Cool sounds good. Well wish me luck.

[mrjimmy]

[techguy.ml]
