i have a 2003 ES w/ foglights; is that all i need for a front bumper conversion sans 2003.5 lip? thanks.

Like MP3wannabe said, you don't NEED everything but you'll have to do some cutting/modifying. The lip is just an add on to the MP3/MS bumper. I think I posted the number in one of the posts above.

yea, im not a fan of the 2003.5 lip, im mainly interested in the mp3/2003 msp look. i mainly just want the bare minimum, but i also want to do it right. thanks! ^_^
 
just as a warning, if you dont get the splash guards (the black plastic piece inside your wheel well) and use your stock ones, there will be gaps. you will be able to see this upclose. but if you wanted to do that part later, its easy enough to do after the fact.
 
sup guys. i need a new bumper for my p5 and was wondering which ones came without the holes in the side for the amber lights.

Front bumper cover--BN7H-50-031-AA. That is the MP3 bumper cover. I believe that it is exactly the same without the holes. I'm not 100% sure though.

you are correct, sir!
 
Does anyone have the part number for the 2003.5 msp front bumper yet. Also, would I be able to put the rear skirt from a 2003.5 msp on a 2002 ES? Part number for that too would be appreciated.

The bumper is the same as the MP3 bumper. A lip is just added to the bumper. The part number is 0000-86-c02-00. The rear lip will work just fine. The number is 0000-8y-c31-00.

:) thanks.

$73.06 is what i paid.

pricey, but damn well worth it.
 
I was told that the part number for the grills as a set (left and right) is 0000-86-C09 and is around 21.00. Can someone verify this part number? I was told the two part numbers you listed are OEM numbers and the part number I have above is an accessory part number. Supposedly much cheaper.
 
Do I need to order the lip or does it come with the lip?

those are for the 03.5 msp grills that are used with the msp lip.
 
I was given this picture for the part.
