Front Bumper

Post by logan_magill »

I’m trying to remove my front bumper. I took the 4 bolts in front next to the bumper shocks out and the 4 bolts in each fender well. Am i missing some or is it just snug?

The upper lip is double-side taped to the bumper brace IIRC. Peel/lift it off from the inner edge..

YMMV

Are you doing the whole rs500 replica deal or only a front bumper? :sawzall

One of my trans cooler inlets snapped and had to replace the cooler i ended up figured it out i had missed the 2 shock bolts that go through the frame. They were kinda hidden by the wiring harness!
