Bumper Removal
Has anyone ever removed their front bumper? Im talking about just the big plastic molded piece, nothing more. I have to take it off to get my new license plate on. I know it involves taking out the turn signal lights. The old nylon mounts have screws rusted in them. (broke off both screw heads)

Re: Bumper Removal (sk8ordie)
To remove your bumper you have to do multiple things.
1. Remove 5or6 screws that hold the bumper onto your front bulkhead. (top most bumper)
2. Remove the two screws (one on each side) that screw into your fender(rearmost part of the bumber on top)
3. remove the two 10mm wrench size (6mm bolt size) bolts that secure the lower most part of your bumper.
4. Remove all accesories that are mounted on the bumper and...viola! No mo' bumpa G!

Re: Bumper Removal (Accord94DX)
I think there was about 12-14 screws you have to remove. I did this when we put on his JDM headlights. It was a BITCH-*** to remove. the 4 especially under the stock headlamps..good luck!
Re: Bumper Removal (schlit)
2 or 3 ppl helping you pull up on the headlight while someone with small and steady hands get underneath the headlights. You cant get it from underneath. You might need like a screw drill bit something small enough to fit underneath the small space to unscrew them. like I said GOOD LUCK!
