Looks sweet. I did the same when I upgraded my rear bumper to the 03-04 look.

Great minds think alike

There is no such thing as a Euro bumper... When you buy the actual bumper the holes are not cut out for the bumperettes. If you don't cut the holes yourself then there are no holes. You do however have to drive out the rivets that hold on the reinforcement that the bumperettes bolt onto.

Thanks for that info! I guess people were calling it a euro bumper because the center has the exact length of the european style license plate. In europe, they are sold this way without the bumperrets and steel re-inforcements. The euronean plates take up and fill the entire center of that area. Like this picture shown here. Thanks again!
