1 screw in each wheel well

2 screws on the underside of the bumper

4-6 plastic clips underneath (outside 2 are longer). Use 2 flatheaded screw drivers to help remove them without breaking them.

Open the hood and remove the 4 black clips that are the furthest back (front ones just hold the grill in).

Lay a blanket down to prevent any scratches and get a friend to help. Pop out one side first at the fender corner. The bumper may just pop right off so make sure your helper is holding the other side.


When putting it back on make sure the bumper lines up under and clips into the underside of the headlights. The fenders also have 2 small tabs on each side that slide into the bumper by the headlights. the sides of the bumper will snap back in. To make it less violent I use a small squirt of lube in the clip. It makes it pop in easier and with less force. The fender screws will not go back in unless the alignment is pefect so good luck :).
