Default Front bumper install questions

I am getting ready to install my front bumper after having it refinished. If your front bumper is currently removed, I need pictures of a few specific areas. Please let me know.

Make sure to clean the ISV while you're in there

Great time to check your muffler bearings as well.

Polish the stainless steel to allow for better dispersal generated by the flux capacitor.

I took a lot of photos during my bumper swap. Let me know specific areas and I will gladly check.

Probably with inbuilt nudge bar to prevent people reversing into his car and damaging
