Changing to MP3 front bumper

Hi there, I am starting to modify my Pro.

1, Does anyone know if the MP3 or MPS front bumper will fit a current Pro gen?

Mine has the same headlights as the 2002 and 2003.


2, I have seen the so-called Racing Air Intake at good prices on Ebay, are they good? Do they fit?


Thx!

Yes, the MP3 bumper will fit. You will need the MP3 reinforcement bar, and wheel well linings since they are different. If you do a search, there's tons of info.

about your intake question on ebay, my friend bought one for his pro (2002) and it fell off while he was driving. I have an AEM and i think its great, but you could try the ebay one, i wouldnt suggest it but that doesnt mean it wouldnt do the job. Just remember you get what you pay for. I know can get good prices on AEM **** tho, so ask if u would rather do that. peace

Sorry for replying late,


So mtbfreak40, I can't go to the link in your signature. It turns out to be a blank page saying - can't find that page.

So did you order the reinforcement bar and wheel well linings from somewhere? I know a friend who may be able to order them for me since he works in a body shop. Other than that, I don't know where else to get them.

And, could you let me know about how much time it takes to finish the job (before getting it painted)?

About the intake, thanks for the info. guys.
