I just got my new bumper in and threw it on last night.
Attachment 89639
About a 98% fit, with only a few squeezes and adjustments. Color match is again about 98%, which I'm very happy with. Install took about three hours as it wasn't a 100% swap from the '08-'11, but it all worked out well. Next up is a set of IPL side skirts...

putting mine back together tomorrow, here is a temp pic. Pieces are just sitting on it, which is what makes the sides appear a dif color in the front, must just be the angle.

And I guess you didnt read well enough, bc that price doesn't include shipping. To your OG price add 100-150 for shipping.
