Newbie needing advice
Long story short, I need to replace my rear bumper and left rear light housing, and I'm interested in doing it myself but am starting to feel maybe I'm underestimating the difficulty of this project...
First of all, I'd need the parts (duh) and have no clue where to start looking besides my google search bar... Any suggestions where to look for (hopefully) inexpensive replacement parts for my 07 Fit?
And more importantly am I nuts for thinking I can take care of this myself?? I am by no means car-savvy, but I'm pretty handy and replaced the light housing on my old 97 Mazda with little difficulty... So I'm 50/50 on confidence and insecurity!
Any advice would be so greatly appreciated, and I apologize in advance for my ignorance!

Lights are easy to replace. I'd check craigslist, eBay, Facebook groups (Honda Fit Marketplace comes to mind) and this site's classifieds section.
Bumper shouldn't be bad either. I have confidence in you.

If your shop on the LKQ and the B&R wrecking are web sites you can find used bumpers that are already painted.. saves some hassle.. The back end kinda snaps together with a few screws, its fussy more than hard..
