Hey guy,
I jsut got my urethane blitz bumper in and I am ready to take the old one off throw in the front mount and finish the kit. My only problem is I am haivng a really hard time attatching the front bumper to the frame near the wheels. Could you guys let me know what you guys use to do this and did you leave your fenders on or did you remove them while putting on the body kit. Thanks

Not yet but I am talking where the bumper and the fender line up together. Do you have to take the fender off to put on the front bumper?
 
Send some pics over.. I havent dealt with that kinda bumper.. but i know for my stock one, it wasnt fitting right (too much gap between fender and bumper). So i had to drill some holes and use self tapping screw to get it on nice...

No, you don't have to take the fenders off, but it would help if you took off the plastic fender liners in the wheelwell. Also, you have to realize most bodykits don't fit that well, so you'll have to play around with the fitments. Does the bumper already have the holes on the side or do you still have to drill them out ?
 
No it doesn't have the holes drilled yet which isn't a huge deal to me. I have done lots of body kits. This one is urethane so I don't see it being to much of a problem.
