That thread has convinced me to get a JDM bumper...so much cleaner looking.

You'll want a few more rivets than the ones they give you too if your going to rivet your license plate holder if I remember correctly. I remember ruining one or two in the process two Just take one to the hardware store with you so you can get the same size. Good luck! Oh ya, I got mine from Driveline too.

Good prices and they have matched colors in stock. I may need to pick one of these up soon. Did you guys get a crash beam too or did you just sacrifice safety lol.

I got the crash beam. Better safe than sorry, plus then you don't have to mess with the existing light bracket.

Those are good for an insurance claim, but won't protect much in the way of a 20 mph accident. With the brackets drastically cut and shortened, you lose much of its ability to take the impact away from the frame of the vehicle.

Besting the Insurance co is all I was after, but I really want to take both front and rear off to save the weight. The Demonworkz one isn't any better IMO than a modded stocker, both will send the impact right into the unibody.

If you buy it through Driveline like I did two weeks ago, they come with pop rivets in a baggie like the far right.

You just need a rivet gun. Picked one up from Home Depot for 19 bucks
