How hard is it to change the shitty chrome bumpers of a TE to ones off a TF or TG, they look way better |

Easy. But you have to change the wiring a bit for the bumper lights and drill some holes in your gaurds for the brackets on the sides of the front bumper. |

Theres a parker and a blinker in the TG bar and only a blinker in the TE bar. So you have to connect the parker wiring to the existing parker wiring. |

make sure you get the brackets for the tf bar
and if you dont want a shitty 1 inch gap btwn your grill and bumper get a file and file the front hole (in brackets) about 2 cm towards the ground - this means you can pivot the bumper up so it looks like it is meant to coincide with the grill
with wiring i just used the parkers in the tg bumper and thought it would look nice to make the tE parkers into indicators as per tG - also being clear i thought looks pretty nice.
just a thought
i also think if you swap the indi/parker set up in the tg grill so that the parkers are on the OUTSIDE it makes the car look fatter in my opinion.
hopr that helps |

whats all the commotion about??
mine just bolted straight up and the TE gemini has the blinkers in the front gaurd so all you have to do is leave the bumbers as parkers..
