Box Dimensions
78" x 28" x 20" weight <70lbs ( do not have means to weigh but I'd assume its very light as I could carry with ease )

Its rather large which may prevent most shipping services due to volumetric weight. It was skidded but did not need to be.

I just bought a set of 6th gen style as much as I love rgb I opted out of colour changing because I have no use as I do not show the car. The company said a new ballast is required I asked them to include in my make an offer and they agreed. Its supposed to arrive mid next week at my border address then I'll have to make a trip to pick up. Harness adapter and bulbs included for hid xenon.

My driver side headlight is out too on my rs package halo is ok.

I'm hoping mine is just the bulb I get no high or low beam and my fogs are currently intermittent as in daytime since they technically are day time running lights.

Your issue its odd I wonder if it just needs to be focused. Using the adjustment screws.

I love the look of this bumper on the 5th gens. It looks like a great alternative to the 5th gen Zl1 bumper conversion. But I do have a few questions if those that have bought it wouldn't mind answering for me. If I buy that kit from ikon it looks like everyone here that has installed the bumper has some big holes where some lights from the 6th gen should be. Can you purchase after market items to fill those holes? I recently got some fog lights for my LS any chance of getting those to fit on this bumper? I plan to buy the 6th gen headlights before I do this but could I use this bumper with just the standard 2014 LS headlights?

Some of Ikons newer listings include lower drl that fit into 1/3 of the holes. The 2/3rds are empty space.

Our existing fogs would need a fabricated mounting bracket to fit in any of the existing ports or on the grill. Personally I do not feel they fit this bumper in aesthetics The bumper fits over any 5th gen headlight it just a question as to what it cuts off. Its got the slimmer style of the 2014 so Id say it favors 2014.

As for after market parts Im not sure there is anything. I'd like to mount cameras in them

Thanks for answering my questions. Yeah the biggest thing holding me back from this is would be the 2/3 holes in front. Hopefully they will keep updating it and at least fill those holes for the 14/15 bumper versions.

I agree the the 14 /15 6gen style headlights git the best and look the best for this conversion bumper..and sadly the stock 5gen 10to 13 RS headlights are shit!! They all turn dim.
