I need help removing my front bumper!
Anyone want to help me out for an hour or so sometime this week/weekend? I need to remove my front bumper to put in my black headlamps!

You can do it yourself in 15 mins! There are two screws in each fender well, 4 of those clips on top where the grill is underneath the hood, and 4-6 more of those clips down below. Don't forget to remove your foggies!

It's a deal DOM!!! I've taken my rear bumper off like 5 times lol so I'm very familiar. And yes Illusive I saw the walkthrough and I'm going to follow it, it's just I want another person to help remove it without damage. None of my friends seem to want to help!!

Ahhh gotcha, makes sense. I had my dad to help me out haha. Good to have 2 pairs of hands working on something like the front bumper. I'm gonna be removing mine as well...what am I doing? You'll just have to see! If I was in Van this coming weekend, I'd help, but I won't be there for another 2 weeks Can't wait though! Rear bumper BTW is so easy, I'm ashamed I didn't take mine off when I was installing my taillights haha

Get a blanket, comforter, etc. or the like to lay it on, the least little friction will take the paint off of the corners if you drag/bump it while on the ground if sitting face up (best way to balance it so it does not fall.).

the only time i can get help from my sons is when i am working on THEIR cars..lol....so when i take the bumper off..like once a month, i put lounge chair cushions underneath..bumper sits right on it...if you are not doing anything major you can leave the fogs connected and work around...15 mins like illusive said..wouldn't hurt to have some extra plastic spikes though...have fun!
