You re use your bumper retainer which holds by 16?rivets. You have to re rivet them on your new bumper. You either mod your stock crash beam or simply take it off and run without it. You also need to mod your license plate/light holder ( take off and bend the arms that holding plate holder then drill - re-rivet to the arm )

you can use the stock crash beam and modify it or theres a company that makes a new crash beam that will fit for that bumper for $200
