Default bumper

hey all. ill start it off from the begginning. About 6 months ago went to the pool store and came out and a truck had hit my bumper. It left and big dent and a hole. My uncle dad and i were able to pop it out with only a scratch mark and hole left. TODAY i was at school and came out to find out bad news. My girlfriend and i got in and she told me to check my bumper. Same spot(Right low-end) of the bumper was WHITE, scratched, and has another dent and hole.[:@] Im so sick of this and the fact that both cases, the person just left. So now, im just spending the money to get a new bumper instead of even fixing it, cuz itll prob still look bad and **** me off more. Question here is what bumper you all think i should get. I got the vibrant dual exhaust.all opinions are appreciated. Thanks and sorry so long

And yes, the side skirts will fit with no trouble at all...the rear lip almost fits, but it will take a little "convincing" to make it 100%...as for the front, it doesnt fit at all.
so i figured that it'd fit. how much of a pain is it to get the 03 bumper on. cuz u gotta buy the 03 taillights right? if so then thats outta the question cuz i just got my altezzas on.lol.

Yes, you'll need 03-05 taillights if you plan on installing an 03-05 rear bumper. Other then that, it would be a direct swap...the 03-05 is more "square" while the 00-02 is more "rounded", which is why the lip doesnt fit perfectly on the 00-02 rear. As for the fitment of the lip to the 00-02 rear, I've been doing some research about it and have seen a few people sucessfully install the lip with a little effort. Doesnt seem to be too difficult, but when I find out more I'll post up whatever information I have.
