It is a straight forward process?
I'm debating on swapping out my GT rear bumper for a Cobra rear bumper.
Any special tools needed?
Tips are also appreciated.
Thanks

BTW...has anyone purchased and installed the one that designconcepts sells?
If so, please let me know if it was worth the lower price than Cervanis (sp?)

TTT I might have to replace my cover as well on an LX coupe though, as mine has seems to have a bend under the passenger side tail light.

BYRDPE, you can do about the whole bumper swap with a 1/4" drive socket set. The hardest part is getting the side pieces off, you'll have to pull the interior trim out of the way enough to get on the nuts and of course the trim at the back will have to be pulled temporarily to get to those nuts as well. Other than that it is pretty straight forward. I got lucky and got a Cervinis piece off of ebay for 75bux it came in black and my 92 is blue/titanium I hate to put it on, and then turn around and have the body shop take if back off to paint the car.
As far as design concepts I think my brother had bought a tonnaeu cover from them and had a heck of time keeping the paint from fish eyeing and cracking real bad, we've both had good experience just spending the money and going with Cervini's.
