Default Underwent some minor cosmetic surgery [pics]

Took me a whole 3 hours to literally rip off my stock bumper. I guess after you break off the heads on the clips holding the bumper down, you are pretty much screwed. I also installed the griffen and the d.speed corners while i was at it.... Dont mind the rims, i am in the middle of rims at the moment.

Here are some pics.... enjoy!

EDIT: new pics added on page 2

Hey John, you're talking about the clips irectly underneath your headlamps right? If so, I just used good 'ol fashioned zip ties to hold the bumper secure.....in fact, everything I've installed exterior-wise has survived the 100 MPH test....lol........
