In my ongoing project I removed the front bumper to paint it. Upon removing it I found the air dam was totally gone and one of the crash bars that protects the under side of the bumper was missing and the other was totally mangled.
I ordered some parts from Chumpvette.
Today I broke it all out and put it together.
First off I got all the lights working. I figured it was easier to do that with the bumper off.
Then placed the crash bars in place and tightened up the undercarriage items that were loose and checked the rest of it.
Then placed the bumper on the car and started to put all the bolts back in, left them loose.
Loosened up the inner fender wells. Then lined up the lower bumper and new right and left air dams. Installed the center air dam and support bar. The support bar is a very important piece, it keeps it up and in shape. With some slight modification on the ends of the bumper mounting rails I got it all lined up. Tightened every thing down and its good to go.
Thank you Chumvette for the parts and especially the extra hardware you included!!! That was a HUGE help.
start of the day new crash bars, bumper mounting rails, and new air dam installing crash bars and tightening the undercarriage Good to have this back on new air dame installed
