I was wonderin if anybody could possibly scan or explain to me how to remove and replace the stock hood and stock bumper with new stock hood and bumper, thanks! Like screw locations and stuff like that.

Do a search on removing the stock headlights and you'll find a nice write up on removing the bumper....cuz you gotta remove the bumper to take out the headlights

As for the hood it's only 4 12mm bolts..you'll need two peeps to do this...pretty much raise the hood, spot the hinges remove the bolts and it slides right off

Hey I did the search but I couldn't come up with anything on how to remove the bumper??

This should do the trick.

What you have to do is remove the bumper cover and the actual metal bumper (which is behind the bumper cover) at the same time.

• remove all tabs on top of the bumper cover
• remove the little grills next to headlights
• remove turn signals that are located under headlights
• once you remove those, you will see two bolts on each side of the car which hold the metal bumper to the frame of the car. You will need a long extension in order for the socket to reach those.
• then there are two bolts on each side of the car in the wheel wells which connect the bumper cover to the fender. Remove those.
• Place a large thick blanket from your bed under your bumper cover so that if it falls unexpectedly you will not damage the paint.
• Then there is one bolt on each side of the car in the engine bay. There is one bolt kind of under each headlight (looks bronze / gold in color). Remove those. The one on the drivers side is easy to get to but on the passenger side you have to loosen your battery tie down and move your battery out of the way for easy access.
• Then you just have to pull the bumper cover off. When you do this the bumper cover and metal bumper come off in one piece and you don't have to worry about the tabs under the headlights.

It's as easy as that but it takes some time and it is better if you have another person to help you pull off the bumper carefully.

Good luck!

Thanks Mark94

Mark94

Anytime

Forgot to mention that once you get the rebar and bumper cover off, just take the five round screw ties off the top of the bumper cover and the two will separate.

Leave those five clips on until the end but remove all other pieces that connect the rad support to the top of the bumper cover in the first step.
