When you put the AP2 bumper on an AP1 you have to shave about 1/4 inch or so off the front support beam(both sides). If you don't you will notice little bubbles in the bumper around the headlight area. It happened to me. I shaved the beam and the bubbles went back down. There is a DIY thread somewhere.

PS use an angle grinder or you'll be sorry. it makes the process much easier.

I was under the impression that HTG did this for you with His AP2 Bumpers For the AP1.
