OK. Now that it is done. The bumper will probably sit for a day or two more in the office so if anyone wants any other pics, let me know and I can take them. Regarding the nine bolts that I mentioned near the top of this whole thing. Originally I wanted to use them and really bolt the front...

I put the insert back between the upper and lower grills and here is the finished install. Now the bumper has been sitting in my office for 3 days now. Cause I am too lazy to take my old ass out there in the cold and install it.

Next Step. Adding the support rods. There are many ways of adding them and I chose to attach them to the underside of the bumper cover. I wanted them to sit more in the middle of the bumper but not too close in. Since I don't have a front plate. I used the center line of the bumper and placed...

I attached the pan back to bumper cover and attached it with the pan to the splitter.

I don't know if everyone will agree with this step or not. There are a bunch of weep holes in the pan as well to drain water and such and I didn't want water pooling between the pan and splitter, so I drilled matching weep holes in the splitter as well. Here are all of the holes drilled and...

Drill time. APR included 12 bolts which I used all of. I just spaced them out where I thought they would give the most support and drilled holes through the pan and splitter at the same time. The instruction sheet said to use a 1/4 bit. I don't know if they changed the bolt sizes but a 1/4 was...

Damn it. I got ahead of myself. Please do this step before the previous one. This is important and I can't believe I left it out. OK, before you separate the belly pan from the bumper cover to drill those two, yes two holes. You must do this first. Still can't believe I forgot this. To make...

Now the real work begins. I have two small card tables that I sat together and placed the bumper cover on. This allowed me to move the cover around without risk of scratching it. All references at this point will be from me standing at the back of the bumper cover looking forward, any changes...

The only thing remaining to remove the bumper cover is the PITA part that everyone talks about. First, You have to remove the three wheel well liner pins, I actually went one step further and removed the next higher up one at the top of wheel well. Pull back the liner and disconnect the...

First step. My car is still at stock height (air lift in the near future) so I was able to take the bumper off without have to lift the car. I am not going to go into lot's of detail on removing the bumper. There are many sites that show the steps. Removing the radiator cover and the top...

After staring at my APR box for a month now. I finally got off of my lazy ass and installed it. First thing I did was go online and look for any vids/pics of the process and was disappointed there was only one video and while it helped me. The most important information was not shown. It was on...

I think Texas has the nicest looking plates for a modified car. Plain and simple. Here is mine

I have owned many cars but this my first mustang. Hell, my 75 yr. old mother bought her first mustang when she was 67. Red convertible with a black top. She still drives it. She said she was going to own the car of her dreams before she died.
