Support innovation and originality for our platform and buy from the shop that went through the trouble and expense of coming up with designs that work.
No they aren't. Compare the products they are different.

Don't make this worse Josh. This is a Powell thread; you won't find your nutswingers in here.
The only reason for any differences is because Powell has further developed his products since you copied them.

Powell includes detailed install instructions with all his products. If yours didn't come with any, email Gloria and you'll have em in a flash!

no cutting of bumper is necessary, the grills will have to be cut
removing front bumper is not needed but makes it easier
