Default F-Sport 2011 Bumper upgrade from Sewell

NE1 upgraded his 07 or 08 front to the F-Sport 2011 Bumper upgrade from Sewell? I'm thinking of putting in an order but want to make sure it will come with everything necessary for the swap. Do I have to order the bumper support brackets L&R (p/ns 52115A & 52116A on Sewell website) or are they in the package already? Mine had to be shaved off so the 2011 headlights will fit so if I go with the 2011 ones I don't have to do that anymore, correct? Thanks for any help.

It comes with everything (minus headlight brackets). If you've already shaved your bumper brackets, I wouldnt order new ones, because they will work. good luck with your build.

I wanted to do mine til I saw it in person and it doesn't sit low enough to the ground for my taste. Maybe when more lip options are available then I will get it

Sorry I am late, ok I looked on Sewell website last week, look like they took down the painted option? just came with unpainted? anyway, the package didn't come with two parts, one is the front L logo, and 2nd is the new grill weather rubber strip, but they didn't mention in the web, so I contacted Darrel, and he was nice enough gave me those for free. OK back to the pakage is come with everything minus the two parts i mention earlier, but it also come with the non F-sport fog light covers, those cover was original came with the NON F-Sport bumper, but those you got charge for if you buy it as the f-sport package which you don't even need, to me i suggest you buy them individual parts which save you about $45 for those two fog light covers
as far as install it is straight swap, except you have parking sensors, it is a little mod there, because the newer sensors are smaller than our 06-08 model, so i filed the holes a little to snug the 07 sensors in
