Couple of bumper swap Q's

[Schnell 318]

I have read through Josh's thread and the walk though on the tech page and I still have a couple of quick questions for those that have done the swap.


1) Which method is better? The cut and rejoin, or the trimming of the end?

2) If I do the trimming of the end method, is it really unnecessary to build new end caps?

3) Will late model lower rear valences fit properly after the swap, or will they require trimming too?

can't answer number 3. But cut and rejoin would be better because it would look more stock, more work, but would look amazingly stock, and why not build new end caps if your that worried about it, it's not how much you spend, it's how well you do the job

I remember reading Josh's thread on the swap a while ago, but now I can't seem to find it.. I tried searching but nothing. Wasn't his username Eurospeed? anyway, any one feel like posting a link for that thread? TIA
