This actually helped out getting ready to do the same thing so know I know I need to move the bracket and a little rewire job thanks ahead of time

Clay where the bracket supposed to be at idk if the previous owner installed the bracket back or not. I haven't remove the number yet but I do see that the bumper has 2 or 3 clips on it where it needs to be bolted to somthing

I never agreed with the eclipse conversion. Talon has much better lines.

Mine was already like this when I got it. So gotta go with what I got just trying to fix it so it not sagging down in the middle

Oh no I was not speaking on your situation, I truly understand. I have seen the Talons butchered over the years for this reason.

I did the eclipse bumper to my talon, and I had the issue because I was lazy. Quick fix is to take a ziptie from the bumper to the middle taillight holes and tighten it up. or you can do it properly and have a small piece of metal welded in the middle and just bolt the bumper to it.
Look is a personal preference, don't let people on here get to you for doing a bumper swap. I've always liked the eclipse rear end more than the talon.
*edit in* better yet no welding needed. Just get a bit of metal you can bolt onto the rear, and then to the bumper. You will need to take the rear bumper off if your gona do the bracket method, and let me tell you.... It's gone be rough if you got big hands. if you take the rear off, look for some way to support the bottom of the bumper as well or it will always seem a bit loose.

I did the zipties because I've been out of a job with no money for 3 months.
