Default Ap2 front bumper dimple?

Any Ap1 owners out there with ap2 front bumpers and unmodified bumper beams??
If so, do you have the "Bumper dimples?" Pix? Thanks in advance

Ill be goin this route too, but I also heard that an AP2 beam can be had for around $50 used i think? obviously from a parts car. it should just bolt up.

I installed my ap2 front bumper a couple days ago and forgot to trim the beam. I won't have time all weekend because of work. Just wondering will the dimple form by monday.

I think your better off just sawing the ap1 beam that's what I did cheaper than buying another beam and just takes a couple minuits.. I also wouldnt have risked puting the ap2 bumper just like that wouldnt want to mess up the fresh paint, I've heard some people say they havent had any dimple's but most do..

cutting off the beam takes only a couple minutes to do with an angle grinder, better doing it rather than seeing those dimples later on!
