5th gen Front Bumper Removal
I'll be removing my headlights, and I think the bumper needs to be taken out.
Anyone knows where the screws to remove the front bumper are? Thanks!

If you pull back the fender mud guards at the front (where the bumper ends and meets the fender) of the wheel wells, you'll find screws there on both sides of the bumper where it attaches to the fender itself. Remove them. Then pop your hood, and remove the front grill (that's pretty self explanitory where the clips are). Once you've removed that, you'll see a series of clips running down the top of the bumper between both headlights (4-5 of them). Pop those out.
I've removed mine so many times, I don't usually bother screwing the splash guard in underneath the car, but you may have to. I don't have pictures to explain, but if you jack your car up in the front, and just look to see where the bumper ends, you'll find it screwed in to the bottom of the car in different spots (not many). You'll just have to look around.
Once you've done that, just pull the bumper off and the headlights will be pretty easy to figure out how to remove. That's it!

why do you need to jack up the front? unless you are the size of chris farley you shouldn't have a problem finding them.

^^Werd.
Be careful not to break the points---> (I'm not sure what its called, its on the side of the bumper, they clip into the body) on the bumper (right above the sidemarkers) which clip into the body, because you'll get the bumper sag.
