            have not had a chance to drill mine yet. been too busy replacing the control arm bushings. next step will be these. so I guess I gotta take before photos.

                  I paid my little brother $5 to drill my shocks for me. Little bastard didn't know what he was getting in to. Brotherly love ftw!

                    Are there any sites where I can buy the black trim that holds the metal bumper? Mine are warped and I want to replace it. Someone please help.

                        I went to go tuck mine today... I have a vert and therefore have two tow hook right where I need to tighten the bolt. Am i missing something before I take a plasma cutter to them?

                          I just used a dremel to remove mine 5 minutes ago. They get in the way of the updated valance during the swap. BTW you dont have to remove the db's to tuck them. Just lie under there and drill. I know this method works because i've done it.

                            Is this for front and back?

                            So, lay under, drill, press bumper in and done?

                                Exactly. I used a larger, more oval shaped ( and robust) composite paper plate. It catches everything a lot better. Lie under and drill front and back. I then went and found the back wall of a local wholesale store and gently bumped them in. I recommend you bring a friend to help you. You really need No speed whatever, just a little *tuck* good luck!
