What have y'all done to your base bumpers?

Swapped it for premium bumper ^^.

Wish I didn't see your link! That does look like it would fit the base bumper and I think I might just have to pick that up with the next eBay discount code.

Don't understand why they all insist on putting some mesh over the reverse light that you can hardly see as it is.

How often do those discount codes come out, are they just a generic site-wide discount? Might wait if that's the case haha

Few and far between, but yes they are site wide.

I did what @tritran18518 did. Bought a used very good condition premium bumper for $300, valence for $130, Ikon diffuser for $105, minus 15% for a total around $450 (it also included shipping), paint was $350. So it can be done at a very reasonable price, especially if you factor in how much a premium bumper is new. I was going to get the Ikon premium bumper cover but found a real one for almost the same price. All of this from ebay (except the paint of course).

About once a quarter, there were a few for the holiday season so it might be awhile until the next one.

can a premium Ecoboost rear bumper cover for on a base GT? The part for the Ecoboost does not list GT, only Eco and V6.

I don't know about ecoboost, but on my 17 base gt, I did a swap to a premium bumper cover with no additional work required...it fits the same mounts.

 

[GEBRONI]

Just weird says premium gt bumper fits v8, v6, and eco. Found a black premium bumper from wrecked eco that is why I am researching ;-)

Plasti dip and cut for quads

I got the stick-on fins from AM, painted them silver. Looks good to me. They've been on about 2 years now.

 

[GEBRONI]

That color scheme looks really good!

Yeah, I love the blue and silver. My last mod was replacing the red taillights with the clear Euro lights; it all matches much better now.

Can you please make more photos of how did you cut it?

Sorry man I don’t have this bumper anymore and I didn’t cut it myself. But if you draw yourself a little template and have it cut properly, I can’t imagine it’s too difficult. I know the guy that did cut it used a template, just not sure if he drew it himself or got it from somewhere.
