I want to buy this rear bumper but i live in Panama and I know there is a chance the bumper will deform during shipping. And I don't plan spending extra money on making it fit...

Was it a lot of work to make it fit nicely? what was needed to work on?

The actual fitment is great, but the bumper does require a lot of work if you want it to look like mine. The quality is there, but your installer will need to make some custom brackets. My installer is top-notch and usually works on Ferrari's, Porsches, Lambo's, Aston Martin's, etc. He just went over the top on quality. You can tell because the paint is near identical and that is very hard to do with the pear white. My installer also did another clear coat on the carbon fiber.

In the actual bumper itself, there is a part where the license plate frame is that was a huge hole. My installer created a mold from my OEM bumper out of fiberglass to fit in that area so it would be as close to OEM as possible. Not only does it look great with the plate off, the plate is tightly secured and doesn't vibrate.

He also made a custom bracket for the trunk opener which actually sits more flush than it did on the OEM bumper. I will try and get some pics of that for you guys tomorrow.

^^Forgot to answer your question about the F.I. exhaust. I have no fitment issue with the exhaust. The tips are very close to the openings but absolutely no problems. I can take a couple of pics up close if you'd like. I do not think my installer had to move the tips, but I know he did loosen them so he could clean the area around the mufflers so maybe he re-adjusted them to fit flush. It looks great though. I did some heavy pulls today and I did not hear any vibrating or clanging so I'm good to go.:tup:

I got something like this done for number plate, then it was molded.

would love to see what you did for trunk opener :tup:

I wonder how much/what kind of work is needed for the actual Amuse rear?

Thx! Yeah, I can fit a piece of paper btwn the exhaust and bumper, no rattle, but worried bout heat being so close. Dont wanna melt the bumper! Luckily I'm near Tony's shop so will swing by for an adjustment. Glad urs fits better:tup:

Looks great!

Tits! :tup:

damn that rocks!!!

Thanks for the compliments guys.

It was something like that. I will try and get some pictures of the trunk opener and plate area today.

looks absolutely amazing!

Thanks man. It took about two weeks and lots of work but it was worth it. It did come out pretty good.

Here are some pictures of the trunk opener. It sits very flush and is a lot easier to get to on this bumper.

And here is a picture of the top of the bumper which you see when you open the hatch. My installer did an excellent job keeping it close to OEM looking and clean.
