What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

Got most of the install done. Just some finishing touches like wiring and the skid plate are left. Had to leave everything to go to work.

Anyway, I am very happy with the bumper. Had to be a little creative to incorporate the "behind the grill" bracket. If I don't like it I will just move the light bar to the bumper. It was interesting mounting the bumper itself on my own. It involved a balancing act, but I got the job done.

:jaw drop:
 
I love it when UPS shows up at my work...

Unpacked the ARB as soon as I got home for tomorrow's onslaught of part's flying...







FYI...the Mrs. is NOT happy about losing her garage to this crap...she pissed and moaned for 10 mins. when she came home from shopping about how "I don't need that stupid thing"...lol

of course I had to mix up a little tito's and diet Cranberry to take the edge off..


The one thing I will say...ARB gets an "A+" for packing....Holy ****balls everything is protected!! I have 2 garbage cans full of cardboard!!

Are you planning on following the instructions to the T? Give me a call if you need a walk through for the bumper trimming. Or just do what I did.

You'll see what I'm talking about when you get to it.

Crazy story. Bought back my 1997 T4R today that I sold just 5 weeks ago. Yea our 14 came in and we are loving it. Have a nephew who told me 3 days after we sold the old one that he decided to get rid of his Hyundai Genesis Cpe and try to find an older T4R like ours. He didn't know we had put ours up for sale. Anyway, he has been shopping since and cannot find anything in as good condition for near the price we sold. So, contacted the guy I sold to and offered a few extra bucks over what he paid and now my nephew is getting our 97.

Timely story too. He lives in Austin. Hint, look at the Tito's label. Lol

It's amazing all the things Tito's fixes!!:first:

The local liquor store, which is huge, finally listened to me and brought it in .....you think the cheap f's would throw me a bottle....they can't keep it in stock!

Don't panic when you don't end up using a lot of the bolts, nuts, washers, etc. One thing is there are a bunch of copper/brass coloured clip-on sort of captured nuts (if I wasn't at work I'd take a pic of one for you but [MENTION=68685]Ducmonsta[/MENTION] might have one handy or at least know what they're actually called) to bolt the three bottom skids in place. Keep those handy as the clips eventually bend out of shape. I've already had to replace a few of them now and soon I'll have to try to find more of them.

Those clip-on captured nuts look just like those used for mounting hardware on data center racks...When I do my install starting tonight I will look closer...if this is the case, super easy to find. I have hundreds of these sitting at my house, lol.
