front bumper mod

I am going to get some body work done next week cause i slid out on some black ice. I am gettin the jdm mr headlights and the siebon vr lip. My question is does the lip just fit like stock or is there gonna be some fitting involved? I am also getting a new bumper because my in now in pieces and since it is off i wanted the body shop to trim out the center part where the mitsu symbol is. Does anyone have a close up picture of it so i can show the people exactly what i want.

thanx in advance

Shoulda came that way from the factory that first WW looks really nice.

I've heard of people cutting out the triangle and plastic welding/molding flat pieces of plastic, then adding a couple layers of fiberglass & painting but I've never been able to find a local shop that was willing to do all that.

not a lot of shops will do it because it's tedious and makes the top part of the bumper near the hood latch very fragile

After some research it looks to cost anywhere from $500-700 to get done.
