hey guys,

I have a 14 lux edition and wanted to switch the bumper out to an f sport. I read a couple threads for the conversion but haven’t found all the answers. I have the bumper with headlight washers and parking assist holes. I noticed the bumper is almost double the price just for some holes. It is possible to buy the bumper without the headlight washer holes and just cut them in? Or is that too ghetto rigged haha photo is how she sits now.

I probably wouldn't do that, not sure how that would look. In terms of price what is the difference exactly.

You can get a brand new f sport bumper for around $300 factory unpainted. You've done a nice job with the standard bumper blacking out the chrome and the middle section.. I'd recommend get a brand new F-sport bumper if you go that route to save yourself the trouble of cutting/dremeling/leaks/dashboard warnings/etc!

​​​​​AJ, please post link where you get Factory painted front F Sport bumper. I've been thinking getting my front bumper re-spray but if I can get it from factory painted that might be a better way to go.

My apologies as I misspoke! The factory new bumpers come unpainted. I was using mylparts.com and it was unclear if they have them painted, but it looks like its sold without any pre-prep.
