Re: Front bumper reinforcements
Glad i didn't wait for those reinforcements. They came last Friday. The east coast guys sent two driver's side brackets, so they had to be sent back. They reshipped, and I picked them up last week. So it's all back together correctly now. There's a little bit of preload on the front end, but I was a...

2014 xm Hookup
Looking for some advice on the easiest way to get the satellite radio working in my 2014. I have read all the posts concerning this, and think I have a decent understanding of what's enabled and not enabled. I don't mind spending some money, as I said, I'm looking for the easiest way to do this. My ...

Re: hood interchange
the mechanical latch is the same on both the ones I saw. Hinges are identical also. Everything looks the same, even the number of holes on the inside.

Re: Hello from FL
like the console, and what's up with the headlights? They barely look like they have any haze on the plastic. Did you buff them with something? What's the secret there? I have a '14 and the lenses look like rice paper.

hood interchange
I measured the hood from a 2013 Caprice PPV and compared it to my 2014. I can't find a difference. They have different part numbers, and it would appear they can't be interchanged. Does anyone know what the difference is? Is it a contour thing? They look identical to me, but I'm not that sharp. I kn...

Re: Front bumper reinforcements
Yeah, I think that's a salt the road and rain in the summer problem. Mine actually look pretty new, even though they are 10 years old. I got it back together, but since I've already ordered the reinforcement kit, I'll be prepared when I drop the bumper again, I can use the new nuts. And I take it th...

Re: Front bumper reinforcements
Actually, though, it sounds like I don't need them...now that I understand it, I should just be able to use the nuts that were on there....I'm headed to the shop now to see if my broken spanish can explain this to the guy...or maybe I'll just show him the video that was up on another thread. After w...

Re: Front bumper reinforcements
That's where they are coming from, Michigan to someplace in Phoenix, then to me in CA. So do I already have the nutserts in the bumper cover I ordered, or are those just threaded holes that the nutsert goes on top of? And I'm sure it's a special shape nutsert, right? I can't just use one I have arou...

Re: On Patrol Live - Caprice Chasing BMW
One of the best I've ever seen. Dude wasn't going to give up until he had to. Doubt that was a stolen BMW, though, it had some mods to the engine, as you could see it backfiring every time he let off the gas...unless he stole it from another racer. Kudos to the driver of the Caprice, good driving sk...

Front bumper reinforcements
I replaced my front bumper cover on the '14 due to the holes from the pushbumper. Took it to the bodyshop, since it had to be painted and I don't do paint. So now it's waiting to go on, since I'm missing parts called the bumper reinforcement brackets and bolts. They apparently weren't on there when ...
