98 eddie bauer
I have a 98 eddie bauer, but I like the bumper on the 99+ better, with the round foglights. I found one for sale but it looks like its missing pieces around the fog lights. also I assume this is an exact swap?

all the ones I've seen seem to have a chrome piece around the corners.

yes it its a bolt on swap
 






You need the bumper reinforcements as well.
 






They are both right.
Make sure it comes with the reinforcement.
an 18mm wrench or socket is all you will need.

Well, and a bowl of Wheeties, those bumper bolts are WAY tight.
 






what about around the corners??
 






That one is set up for the crome corners. Don't get it unless it has the crome corners. There are other ones, like off a sport, that are just one piece, and do not have inserts like the crome ones.
 






The 99 Limited has only the round fog light holes. Does the 98 EB bumper have chrome on it? I am looking for a 95-98 non chrome front bumper? Regards,
