[edit] Supplies Needed
[edit] Instructions
- Start by removing the grey clips on top of the bumper/grille.
- Remove the bolts on the underside of the front bumper holding it to the water gaurd. There should be two screws and a couple clips.
- Then there are two stubborn little screws in the wheel wells (pictured below). There is one in each wheel well holding the back of the front bumper in place. Remove these screws.
- In this image I am pointing at where the screw sits inside the well; it sits up in that little hole you see directly in front of my finger.
- Completely pull the front bumper cover off the car.
