Front and Rear Bumper Guard came Today!

I received my Romik Front and rear bumper guards with the side bars today. Going to get them on this week. I also just put on my Billet Grill set today and it looks great. I ordered the dash cover and Neoprene custom seat covers last week so wont see them for another 2 weeks. I will be pics when i get the guards on.

Are they mounted pretty securely? The rear looks to be using the rear tow hook mounts.

Looks excellent.

I had a them pro installed and my guy said the front and sides were not secure enough. He had to do some more work to get them tight. A little 2 much play. Someone else in the forum said that as well. All my mods r in and i hope to get every thing done this weekend. I will put some pics up soon. I am very happy with the way the guards look.

seems pretty secure to me, I did it myself. This winter I was stuck a few times and we pushed the front guard to get out of some snow drifts, seemed very solid. Only thing is in some auto touchless car washes seems like the side rails can hit the the part you drive onto to start the wash and they need extra care to keep them shiny, the front gaurd is always bright however.. post a pic, I wanna see my Smart's twin

Give a girl a break! lol, Im moving slow over here. I need some help with the armrest and the neo seat covers. Then i am done. No one would help on easter sunday for some reason. HA. The billet gas cap was easy though, did that one myself. I think i need the chrome air intake cover now. After putting the gas cap on i think it needs balance. This will never end!

PC, Curtis how do you open the front trunk with the billet grill cover. Is there a latch inside the car? I need to fill the wiper fluid but not sure how to open it.
I know i am about to be embarrassed right.
