I didn’t know you can order parts with the app. Pretty cool.

Thank you. I’ll try SC as well now. Hope they honor the request.

Sorry guys, they cancel my order because it wasn't compatible.

I'm not in a hurry for the rear diffuser. The hard part is both front and rear tow hook cover are hard to come by and they are very expensive compared to $11 for the rear and maybe cheaper for the front from SC.

There's 3 parts that needed to retrofit the new bumper to work and keep everything original.

1) The hardest part for this bumper to fit perfectly is to cut old center top edges hole clips from old then plastic weld them to the new bumper.
2) Next is to cut the old duct and plastic weld them to the new bumper to make it reach to the duct opening.
3) Reinforcement bar need to cut both end to fit foglights and bottom to fit air duct.

All sensors remove from old with bracket and re-glue to the new bumpet. Fog light still trouble since it's a 3 pins instead of 6 pins.

hey can u show a pic of when u meant with this one? 1) The hardest part for this bumper to fit perfectly is to cut old center top edges hole clips from old then plastic weld them to the new bumper.

Look at your old bumper vs the refresh, the middle top part are different on the refresh. You will need to cut both top part to weld+glue it back to match the old bumper (mine all in white with glue and weld) . You will see it when you get a hand on both of them.

Those of you that are sourcing facelift bumpers, how are you tackling them not having the holes for parking sensors?

thers markings on the inside of the bumper a circle with an x in it thats where they go, and u just use the holder from the old bumper and glue to the new and you are good to go

ok Fellas i disassembled the 2018 fog light can anyone do anything with this and figure out how we can get the 2023 style to work? maybe using the 3 wire fogs instead of the 6 wire ones? i was told that in the 2023 the body control module controls the fogs but in the 2018 they are controlled in the fog light itself im assuming with the whole contraption inside lets get this figured out fellas!!!
