Default front bumper lower valance?

i havent had the front lower piece of my front bumper since i got my car. i didnt mind because if i had it i would scrape it every time i drove into work. im about to paint my lowers though and figured i should prob get it, anyone know where the best place would be? i was planning on calling the dealership tomorrow to see what theyd try to steal from me..

i got mine from the dealer for 75 bucks, it takes two people to put it on nicely and can be tricky to find the right bolts since the piece doesn't come with it

Sorry didn't say that well, it does just clip in but the guy at the dealership didn't give me any plastic bolts so i just used some machine screws to hold the ends in place. Who knows, either itcould hold the valence on better or rip the whole bumper off IF(and thats a big if) I ever hit something. Also the only oneI was able to find online when I went looking the other week had like$50 shipping on it so in reality you spend more money.

haha don't wry, ur lip spoiler won't take the bumper with it. im speaking from experience. i have a stick 01 2.8 and i was so used to driving auto that i forgot bout clutch whne the car was running. had it in gear, let go of clutch and boom. i hit the curb in front of me. put a crack in the oil pan and ripped the lip spoiler right off but bumper was totally fine. so ya there's ma story lol

Thats good, I just figured if it came off I'd put an s4 one on, too bad you had to lose an oil pan to learn that one tho.
