dc_style: Except for the E32 JDM clear corners which are 2 bulb design like the USDM ones and taillights, will need to re-wire.

This includes projector foglights, the ugly foglight/turnsignals, fendertops, JDM headlights and e39A clear corners.

so how would i rewire? difficulty of this task? thanks.

Multimeter, common sense and very carefully. Or have a stereo shop do it. Anyone competent with electronics.

My intercooler core is the "large" 2g Greddy core. It is roughly 2.75" thick.

hmm... anyone?

 

sorry guys i didnt read this thread till today. as you can see the holes are oblonged to allow for adjustment. there is also a stop on the back for when you slide the bumper in and the grooves you see match the mounting area on the body.

hector Part numbers? I made mine out of some unistrut type stuff, and am not entirely pleased with the results.

negative. my dealer says those #'s are no good. anyone else have any ideas what the correct part #'s are or where i can get these brackets? i have a JDM bumper on the way and need to plan out this installation effectively.
