is there a way to take off the front bumper cover without having to pop up the headlights? i can't pop up my driver's side headlight (passenger side headlight cover is getting painted so it's not in the way) because i've already taken the wiring harness, among other things, out of the car. thanks in advance.

 

telum01,

You can remove the black wheel well covers and access the 1 "vertical" screw and the four 10mm (more or less) "horizontal screws" located more towards the front of the car. It will be a tight fit to get a wrench in to reach the four screws located towards the front of the car. Then there's four visible bolts holding the top of the bumper and four more inside the top part of the air dam. There might also be a couple screws underneath the bumper itself. Start with the five screws on each side of the bumper, then the eight I mentioned after that. I wish I could be more specific but I did my bumper a while ago. I hope this helps somewhat.

Good luck.

You could also manually raise the headlight by using the **** on the back of it. There's a thin black rubber cap over the ****, around 1.5" in diameter if I remember correctly. Should pop off and there's a red **** under it that you can rotate to open and close the light.

 

sweet! thanks guys!
