How do you remove the rivets under neath the side corner light? And do you have to get a rivet gun to put it back or can you use screws or nut and bolts?

nyckid - yeah sorry mine got ripped off on the freeway I will add that in.

Johnnyone - you shouldn't have any real rivets? just plastic ones and screws and bolts.

Look at the 4th pic in ur write up. Right above the box outlining the sidemarker is a real rivet, its different than the plastic rivets that keep the grille on. I attempted this today and backed off once i saw the rivet.

I have an 05 sedan but the rivet under the sidemarker looks the same.

You dont have to remove those rivets. They are connect the metal bracket to the bumper . It does nothing to hold you back from removing the bumper from the car. Do you understand? Are you trying to remove the brackets ?

You dont need to remove the bracket from the bumper. It stays as one piece since it's obviously riveted in. I've taken my bumper off a couple times on my 05 sedan.
