Awesome results!! This will help many in the future. I too felt the front of the car needed something. Fog lights and lip are a must. Nice how-to and sticky worthy!

Nice! Post pictures of your completed setup. BTW, Where did you pass your wire through the firewall? I'm only aware of the opening near the battery.

There' a grommet at 5 o'clock to the brake booster looking from the front outside, its unused.

Any pictures of the spot you're talking about? I'm not familiar with where the brake booster is located.

Lift the cover over the master cylinder, drivers side, look down to firewall.

You'll see a very small grommeted rubber plug, you can pierce it to run the wire.

In for updates. Very nice job. I didn't realize the non-sport bumpers were so similar to the earlier sport.

Really interested, but waiting to see what the chrome bezel looks like smoked/blacked out.

Edit: Didn't the bumper swap utilize the factory stalk switch? Any reason you chose not to go this route?

I did a quick plastidip for now, (pic is up) waiting for another set of chrome trims to have sanded down, and painted OB.
The Duplicolor Shadow was a total FAIL!!

Maybe I'll talk Raul into painting them when I have him do my headlights.

I have fogs on my headlights using the factory stalk switch, wanted to use the bumper fogs separately from the uppers.

The IPL style bumper wasn't for me!!
