Don't have any, sorry. There is a plastic bracket/mount that surrounds the headlight. This is what the bumper hooks onto. That will need modified slightly for clearance. You'll see when you try to mock up the bumper. If you don't use the included screws, you won't need to do this. If you don't use the screws, there will be a chance that these bumper reinforcement tabs will pop off. It's a small chance but it could happen

The modifications being mentioned involve filing down a notch so that the forward most screws have room for the nuts. There’s a super tight gap between the fender and headlight bracket that just won’t accept the thicker, modified bumper tap. And I didn’t see this mentioned but when you install the bumper there’s 2 things you have to keep in mind. 1) When you push the bumper under the front of the headlights, you want all four tabs BELOW the plastic flap. The inner most tabs can easily slip over the plastic flap and cause stress on the ends of the bumper. 2) When you push the bumper under the fender to finish up, use one hand to pull the bumper up and over the clip on the headlight bracket (basically squish the bumper into to the fender simulating zero gap). Use your other hand to push on the bumper to apply pressure, and carefully pull the bumper down and over the headlight bracket (while applying pressure still). I didn’t hear a gratifying click or anything but damn I’ve had this gap for years and it’s finally gone. |

For those that have installed the new version, did you use the screw/nut AND also glue?
