Thanks guys! I actually have chosen to try the bumper without the sides for now. I currently have the sport sides with splash guards. For some reason, I wasn't entirely sold on the side skirts, and decided they could always be added later if I change my mind.
I do have a few (at least one depending on the outcome) small touches for when the bumper gets put on.
I've found parts like that are easier to wrap attached to the vehicle, then remove to get the final wrap around back. Not sure how hard that would be to do w/ those parts though ???
Look forward to seeing the end result.

It got easier after I realized that doing it in one piece wasn't going to happen, and there would need to be a couple seams. Luckily, the seams aren't even noticeable unless you are looking under good lighting a few inches away.
I had the fog bezels on my sport bumper painted at the same shop that did my grill. They've been awesome about painting stuff others won't
Painting these parts scares me due to chipping, although if done right it can be just as durable as paint on your front bumper. It would need professional prep, paint, and would still probably chip slightly over time like a front bumper. I wanted to go a DIY route and found a perfect match vinyl for my OEM midnight grille. I'm glad you were able to find a reputable shop to do it right since that's typically the hardest part.
I have the OEM midnight grille and it has this same gold flake metallic black. I am considering wrapping the top and bottom chrome bars to make it all black.
