it's a tight fit, was like they built it while it was attached to a vehicle, less than a credit card thickness between the bumper and the grill

i actually wouldn't have minded if it had been built a half inch lower overall across the top, i had to trim the plastic fender liner / flare supports that apparently don't exist on newer models

i was actually quite pleased with it, after i got the rear bumper with the tail light guards, i explored the options and decided that overall it would look the best with a front that matched the lines of the rear

I've had it almost a week, and i'm still giddy

As noted it was the last one they built, no more of the Trail ready available
others make rear bumpers though
