Default Need amuse bumper advice?

Hey guys,

just bought an amuse r1 bumper replica its plastic outside and fibreglass inside,havent seen
this type of material before but anyways,i'll be going along with a diy job myself
i was told that where the bar meets under the headlights it may need
trimming in order to fit? has anyone had any experience with these before?
i tried searching for diy threads didnt find anything.If there is anything i should know before i start
some advice would be much appreciate.
Thanks!!

on my bumper i had to shave down a lot around where the headlights meet the bumper. i also had to lay a lot of washers under the bumper where the phillips screws secure it under the hood part, to align for a good fit. i used a dremel and then sand paper

thanks for advice helped alot! i finished putting the bar on,damn there was alot of trimming where the the bar meets the light
and spent time drilling new holes for the bar as it didnt come with pre-drilled holes,
overall looks awesome just needs painting now.Just one question did you re-use the 10mm bolts under the bar?
i went with drilling in screws straight onto the splashtray,i couldnt seem to line up the original bolts from underneath.
