Looks almost as good as mine!!
The hardest part was trying to pop off the rear tail lights!! Search the DIYs for more info.

Everything else is easy.

Those giant push pins are a pain haha.

Looks awesome Topher, definitely do the rear! I was iffy at first too, but after it went on, I was like damn. It really ties the sides into the rest of the car IMO. Here's a comparison.

Nice pictures of the car. U kept the fog inserts chrome and your top and bottom stripe of the front grill chrome,and the rest of the grill glossy black, matte black, plasti dip or what you used? Looks very good. I was going to have the bodyshop spray the whole thing black, but now having second thoughts.

Its an OEM midnight grill....and I do kind of like the contrast of the chrome around the lower vents. Now if they had fogs in them, I would say paint the chrome to color match, but without having the fogs, it adds a nice differential into the bumper and lower portion

These pictures are going to drain my bank account...

Looks amazing! Is the front bumper pretty easy to install yourself? If you lose/break clips, is it easy to get replacements from a dealer or online?

Front is easy, I haven't touched a car (mechanically) in almost 10 years. I suggest having someone help you, as it ook me 15 min to take off, but 45 min to put on
