I am trying to get the 11 or so screws off so I can take the bumper off, any help because they are barely moving I got a couple off so far, thanks

 

WD-40 them and let them sit for awhile, they should come out a BIT easier... If you can move them a bit, screw them back to where they can move and then put on the wd40. Push hard and twist. If that doesn't work than tell me... I have more extreme measures you can take.

 

nice, thanks I will go try and get back to you

 

I bought an impact driver from Sears Hardware just for this task, worked like a charm. It was like 24.99 FYI. Also, when you put everything back together, make sure you use WD-40 in abundance, it'll make the next time much much easier.

 

really, they are not budging and I keep spraying wd-40 but they are going to start to strip and I dont want that, any other suggestions

 

You dont have to take off the bumber.... I'ts just a few screws and some clips to hold it on to the bumper....... You just gotta get under the car a little....

 

Yeah, you can do it with the bumper on. Its simple. Just jack the car if you cant get under it.

 

Yeah I just got under the car and bolted it on, looks great too now I just have to put the sides and the rear on durring the week, the sides should be easy but I hear that the rear gets a little tricky, any suggestions...thanks for the help

 

doesnt your stuff come with instructions?? mine were pretty well detailed, and to be totally honest...its pretty simple

 

yeah it did come with good directions, but there are always more than one way to do something so I was just lookin for any other pointers..it does look simple

 

hey ummm wanna scan the instructions and email them to me? thanx

 

I dont have a scanner yet, but you can go to your Acura dealer and they will print you out a copy

 

post a pic, when you get it installed if you can. I'm considering putting a new lip on my ride and I'm trying to decide on which one I want to go with.

 

sure, I have the whole oem kit but the comptech front lip is nice too you should check that out if you cant find an oem one

 

you don't need to take the front bumper off. I don't know why you would need the instructions, just jack the front end up, get underneath and look at the hardware you have and it should make sense. You'll see the clips you need to slide in to bolt the lip to. It's just a front lip, pretty hard to mess it up.

Don't take off the bumper.
1. clean the bumper real good
2. jack the car up slightly
3. mount one corner than the other
4. do the bolts underneath the car
5. drop car down take pics

 

The sides have small clips that hold them on. They clip onto the OEM sides, BUT when you put them on, there are small marks on the mounts. The white clips go into these holders up to the marks, and not past them. Then you just push the whole side onto the car.
