I don't have a picture but they are the (2) holes in the bottom of the stock frontend spoiler. The bolts go into the frame support. They help hold the stock frontend bumper/spoiler assembly. Let me know if you cannot find them and I will get a picture in a few days.

After I got hit by someone the insurance charged a buttload to get it repainted at a shop so its gonna be pretty steep cost wise.

Insurance always costs or gets charged more. When places know they can charge an insurance company they see $ signs. 1st they gotta create an estimate which takes time = $ 2 many times they gotta show damage to an insurance adjuster and explain it all again time = $ 3 then they actually do the work which is c also time, parts etc = $

You bring it in ask to get painted all they basically gotta do is do the work none of the bs involving insurance company. So it’s cheaper. Plus companies know some people not generally made of $ want you to return so they give you better deal then they would a insurance company.

I've got all the wiring completed on the back side and every detail finished on the front of the bumper, so it's ready for install but I won't be able to do it for a couple weeks because my business is too busy. I appreciate the compliment and yes, I do think that it turned out really nice. I spent a lot of time to do it right.

Here are a few pictures of the vehicle at night with my additional LEDs in the grill. Turned out pretty good.

I have an after market tubular crash bar to replace the ugly stock crash bar so I machined a custom tow hook as shown.
