Fabulous rear bumper question...
i was just wondering if anybody knows if the Fabulous rear requires the removal of the rear reinforcement. if anyone knows of any other rear that does not require the rear reinforcement being removed please let me know. thanks

I dont think it does. I have the bumper at home just waiting to be put on, can't wait, but from the looks of it no other modifications will be needed. I haven't test fitted it yet but when and if I get a chance I;ll take a close look at it.

I will post pictures for sure. Should look nice with the Autobahn front and sides
Snipaz, I'm probably going to have it put on the first week of October.
The only thing is that I'm debating whether I should take the plunge for this.

Oh and the bumper does not come with the rear fog light. There's a cut out for it and a wire mesh behind it. It does look good without it though.

Ouch... that looks like a tight fit. How do you prevent the bumper from melting?
