Default Crx Body kit help.

I bought my Rex with a silly body kit on it. I was going to keep it on and just work with it but i tried to teach my wife to drive stick and she ran it up a curb. Needless to say the front bumper is torn to ****. I dont have any experience with body kits and i was wondering whats the best way to get it off so i can go back to stock. Thanks in advance.

not sure about the rex but on a sedan all you have to remove are the 2 screws on each corner by the wheels,the bumper lights with wiring,the two bolts behind the bumper lights and 1 screw behind the bumper on the support on each side...there should be a total of 10 bolts and screws to remove not including the bumper light screws...!!!

its actually easier and less time consuming than you think...hardest part is taking off that damn plastic air tube located behind the bumper on the passenger side but its a piece of cake...!!!

You shouldnt need to touch the airbox. Just a couple bolts and screws dood. Should take you all of five min.
