i did mine myself with sikaflex, not that hard although was the hardest bodywork job av done..just gettin it lined up perfectly and clamped without it moving is a bit tricky.

its an easy job, i just took my exhaust off as that was in the way of the bottom lip,
then i offered the bumper up, marked where it should sit, was level with the bottom recess of the old plastic bit on the old bumper
sikka flex it on, clamp it up, then filled the groove in, took to get sprayed, welded exhaust brackets on new angle so it would sit in the left hand pocket
