        No I like the way you work!





        Drum roll please!!!







        Euro bumpers have made an appearance in my life. Finally.

        Off with the old.



        The original 3 pin american connector



        Remove the parking light pin = a european 2 pin connector = plug and play.



        Bad shot of the european connector.





        Buttoned up.



        Super easy install. Messing around with the wiring was the worst part. I hope these pics can help others. The parking light is the grey wire on both sides. Leaving the brown (ground) and the blue/red (blinker) intact.

        My valence is really banged up. I hit a deer a few months ago and dented the valence pretty bad. Its much more noticeable now unfortunately with the little bumpers. Im still happy with it!

        Anyway, more pics to come when I do the rear install.

            Bravo. I'd lose the sticker and both front plates and we have found perfection in an early model sedan. Good work

                    Snapped a quick pic this afternoon. It cleans up pretty nice if you ask me.




                    Edit because I haven't updated this thread in a while-

                    rear trim is on!












                    It looks so much better with trim!

                          Went out for a drive today. I love this car so dang much! I handles so well some times it still surprises me. I have an interested buyer looking at it this weekend and I am already starting to miss it. :(
