Removing Front Bumper...

Does anyone have a diagram or pictures on removing the front bumper? I have a shop that is doing some test fitting and they need some directions?

Thanks for your help............

Need to remove 3 plastic clips in plastic wheel well liner to access 2 10mm bolts per side (requires really long socket extension(s)) <Turn wheel to gain access>
Remove a bunch (10-15) 10mm bolts along bottom of bumper

Take it to another shop if they are asking YOU on how to remove a bumper.

They have done other cars but this will be there first time making something for a G35............they want to make good quality kits for our G community. I thought the same thing maybe I shouldn't do this........I'll checkout there shop and go from there, if everthing goes well you will see a grade A replica kit.

go to another body shop. and body shop that needs directions on how to remove a body panel is not a good one.

i don't care if they've never worked on that car.

I took the bumper cover off myself with no instructions, and I'm far from a body shop guy. It's very straight forward....
