hey guys i was wondering is 99 spec bumper pretty much bolt on?i just bought 99 spec bumper from my boss!! now i am just curious if it will just bolt right on when i take off stock bumper off!!

 

i think u have to modify the rebar

 

what u have to do to the rebar

 

Well, the signal lights are much bigger.. you'll have issues with fitting the new signals.

 

You have to enlarge the holes for the 99 spec lights. Some people just hack off the ends, so it's up to you.

I just enlarged the holes a bit, but after cutting, there's not much material left anyway.

 

Here's a thread I started a few months ago about the same topic. You might find it useful.

any1 have pic or anything of what i have to large the holes for?

 

or save yourself the work and just buy a 99' Rebar at rx7store.net or corksports.com.
The 99' Rebar will make a perfect fitment, plus you will benefit the additional 99' foglights if you prefer to have them on.

 

what u guys talking about? i didnt have to modify mine at all...

 

that's because you probably aren't even running on a Rebar. I see that FMIC, so you prob. took it off. IF the reinbar is taken off, than of course there's no modification to it whatsoever.

 

ya i did take it off...but i dk what u were talkin about modifying for the turn lamps...mine popped right in

 

if you have the reinforcement bar - and it's a good idea to have it - then you need to enlarge the hole for the lamps (the original is the same size as the original lamps) - basically you just need to get it cut bigger (though I've seen some that look like a hammer was the only tool used...).

from this...

of course, if you read the link provided above - you will see everything you need to know

 

Again you don't have a rebar that's why yours didn't have any fitment issue.
I was refering to the 93-95 Rebar. If you have the 93-95 stock rebar than you will have to cut the signal lights to make it bigger to fit the 99 Combo Lights.
