    Cue auction for Ukraine🇺🇦**

    The original bumper was inserted very tightly, and was damaged beyond repair in the process of removing it. I have an aftermarket bumper I tried to install, but it was unfortunately just a bit too small.

    Cue auction for Ukraine🇺🇦**

    Pics added! I removed the bumper to see if there was a weight bolt that could be easily removed, but whatever is in there looks fairly permanent. Not sure what kind of joint it is, but I posted a pic- do you recognize the joint? I'd be glad to add that info. to the OG post.
