the euro rear correct?
in the crash foam there should be two black pop rivots or what ever. The way your supposed to do it is drill into those and bam. The easiest way is to take a hammer or crow bar and just rip the dam thing off and huck it in the garbage. If your plan is to fit the stock crash foam behind the euro rear, GOOD LUCK!!! It can be done but its a pain in the ass cutting that foam and BLAH!! No point.. I didnt even use a crash foam. Most aftermarket kits require removal of it anyway.
Do you have a euro rebar is the most important. This is a must. Just ask a few of us members on here what happens. If you do then good. Only 2000 to 2002 focus the rebar well connect rigth up to stock bolts where on the 2003's you have to drill mounting holes.and make your own.
as for the front bumper the crash foam goes out as well. same procedure as rear. then because its a euro front you have to modify the front rebar witch is welded and is part of the frame of the car. what you have to do is take a angle grinder with a nice blade and cut away the corners so you can make room for the european signals..
