Do you have any pictures of where it's hitting (with the bumper cover on)? You might be able to trim the bumper coving instead of your actual bumper.

There would be no way to trim the cover where its hitting. Its hitting where the groves are for the holes in the bumper. There is nothing there to trim. I wish I would have taken a picture of it on there when I had the chance maybe I can snap one tomorrow.

What brand is that? Street Scene isn't showing a SS bumper for a yukon or even a sierra for 99-02. There's one for a 03+ sierra but it's like the one Tahoewhat posted (the middle part is different than yours). You are suppose to leave the top bumper cap on by the way.

Have you emailed the guy you bought it from? Did it come with any directions? That's odd that he is advertising it for the Yukon but if you have to do some major cutting then that is a little misleading if you ask me.

No I didnt email him yet. No directions either. I did notice he has a no return policy.

These are the pics I could get. After looking at it again I dont think trimming would even do the trick. The gap it needs to go back on each side is to big even if I trim the bumper.

I wonder if you could file a claim with paypal since the ad does say it will fit your truck just by taking the lower valance off.

That might be more of a drive than willing to make at this time.lol

I tried putting it all every way I could think of. Side to side, top to bottom, I even took the bumper completely off and tried squeezing it on while it was on the the ground. There is no way around it im gonna have to cut the bumper.

Sounds like you did everything i would of done. I probly would of taken the bumper off as well.
that sucks man. Sorry to hear about that.

Have you emailed the guy you bought it from? Did it come with any directions? That's odd that he is advertising it for the Yukon but if you have to do some major cutting then that is a little misleading if you ask me.

This is what i was thinking next, hopefully he will email back with some sort of directions, news something.

Do you know of a good bodyshop? Or where you got it painted at. You could try to talk to one and see what they say. Im kind of lost on this one.

Yeah that's not even close. The only bumper I can see that fitting is the 99-02 Silverado HD.
