How to remove Front and Rear Bumper
My Bumper kit just came in today.
If anyone have any info/tips on how and what tools are needed to remove both the front and rear bumper would be nice...
Thanks....Myron

FSM's in the tech section will show what all is involved. I never removed the rear bumper personally, but the front is easy. Remove forward fender liners, engine splash shields and the clips from the grill area. Remove bulbs from lights in bumper. Front bumper will slide off forward.
Never actually removed the rear myself, however, the front I've done.... Literally a thousand times, and it couldn't be simpler. Remove the grill (the black plastic tabs under the hood), as well as the two side tabs not on the grill itself.
Turn wheels so they are facing the far right/left direction. Pull out the clips in the splashguard, then pull it out and away so you can work (does not need to be completely taken off). There will be 2 bolts (one right by the splashguard you've now pulled back, and one in the same row, a little further back. Unbolt those (on both sides) and now just pull the bumper back towards the front of the car and down.
Sounds complicated, it really isn't.
