Default Radiator Core Support How To?

I was wondering if anybody had a how-to on how to replace a core support i bought my civic and it has some front end damage i have the new support i just want to make sure it will be in and in right. I can do it my self just wondering if anybody has a how-to on this some short cuts or cautions to take while doing this like making sure it is square so bumper and feders line up. Pictures would be a big help.
Thanks,
Allan

take it to a body shop!!!!

buy/ get a drill, bits, chizzle and hammer.

drill out the spot welds take your chizzle and seperate the core support from the body. line up the core support and tak weld it. so you can put the front end on to see fittament. once your happy with it remove the body parts and spot weld it up

you and two friends will make the job easier. youll need to drill out the all the welds. then have your friends line up the support and then youll have to spot/tack weld. sounds simple, but everything has to be align on point and also if you dont have access to a welder, dont try.
