Removing Front Bumper?

Hi All,

Anyone have a link for a good video or write up on removing the front bumper? I've looked through the forums and found a detailed write up but it involved removing the grille and fascia pieces under the headlights. I think its possible to just remove the bumper no?

Thanks!

Thank you Sir! This is the one I found earlier, looks like they are removing the grille and front fascia under the headlights. I've seen pictures of them with just the bumper removed so I was wondering if anyone had done it that way. Thanks!

 

It's easier to just take them off.

 

Thanks guys, I’ll give it a shot tomorrow.

 

There's some info on my build page if you need it. I took all that off to dip the caps and put on spacers.

 

I just removed the plastic liners in the wheel wells and a couple of nuts holding the plastic piece on the bottom. That allows you to get your arm in there and remove the 8 nuts holding the bumper. You will need a ratcheting wrench for this. Then just disconnect the fog lights and the entire bumper slides right off.

 

Did it a few weeks ago, not that difficult. There’s a video on YouTube

 

Thank you! This is exactly what I am trying to accomplish.

 

Anyone know if there is a torque spec for the bolts holding the bumper to the mounting points?

 

There is but I don't remember what they are. I'm not at home or I'd look it up again.

 

I know this was a few years ago, however how do the removal go? Was it as easy as removing the plastic piece and a few bolts as stated?
