Got me a new bumper!

How was the fitment???

I believe the fitment was excellent. I say "believe" because my radiator support and bumper reinforcement are misaligned (from a crappy repair done before I bought the car). The tolerances are very tight under the Cervini's bumper. I had to slot the bolt holes on my bumper reinforcement to move it back up to the OEM location. I had to remove the foam bumper insert too. Once the bumper reinforcement was in the right spot, the bumper slid on with some wiggling. Like I said, it's a tight fit. This is the fiberglass bumper, it's best to hook one side around one fender then pivot the bumper towards the other side.

Worst part was slipping the bumper over the lip on the header panel, under the headlights. I kept slipping it underneath by mistake and had to pull the bumper off to fix it. The job would have been easier with a second set of hands.

This bumper is also lower than the OEM bumper, I've already scraped it a couple of times in places I had no problems before.
