I am planning on replacing the front bumper fillers on the Regal.  They are really brittle and looking quite perished.  The passenger side already has a hole in it and is cracked to heck.  It’s only a matter of time.

I have been researching and it seems you get what you pay for.  I have decided to get the best set out there and then have it sprayed 079 garnet red metallic by a local shop.  If I bought a lesser fiberglass set I would have many hours of body shop work involved just to make sure fit and smoothness are there.  I would much rather start out with a design that is well made and ready to spray out of the box while also having a good shot at it fitting without much fuss.  Expensive pieces but in the end I would rather pay up front and have it done right rather than learning an expensive lesson trying to cut corners.

I will be writing up a how-to article once I get these back from the paint shop.

Here is a nice video showing how to install these.

Time lapse install with bumper removed.  This is probably what I will do.
