I'm not that familuar with the PT Cruiser, but do you have to pull the front
bumper to get to the condenser, radiator, even water pump?
I'd hate to glue it on, then find out I need to take it off
again. Also, don't know
how strapped he is for cash, but I've bought front and rear bumper covers for
several different cars off vendors on ebay. Usually like $80 - $100 and about
$60 - 80 to ship. Have you all looked into that?
