Default rear bumper facia replacement

in swapping out the standard V6 facia for the GT one how difficult is it without scratching or cracking the plastic. I know they cant be that hard but it is new territory for me.

Default rear facia exchange

going to the GT bumper cover was fairly easy. You have to remove 2 screws each side fenderwell,remove the trunk panel covering the rear latch and wiring . There you will find 4 bolts with bolts holding the bumper in place. With some prying,gently...pull the bumper cover off. Depending what type of GT bumper you get you need to salvage the brackets/stiffener from the original. Remove the wiring harness and thats about it. Do it in reverse to install
