Im thinking of getting this:

How hard is this to fit? Can you still get it on with a standard bumper?

Take off V-grille bolts under the bonnet, bang off old grille backwards towards car - rubber hammer, foot will do, lift out when loose, put new grille in place, do up the two bolts.
Job done - 5 mins max

the post 97 bumper will fit, but whether its worth it is upto you. Im still 50/50 on whether to do it or not. If you dont mind cutting your standard bumper up you can put the kamei grille in it. Search for a user called icy, as he's done this on his car
