Default Removing Front Bumper on 92-96?


Am I right in saying, that to remove the front bumper on my '93 Lude, there's 2 bolts accessed from the front after removing the front indicators first and 1 nut accessed from the engine compartment just behind the headlight unit?

I'm trying to remove my headlight units and this looks like the only way to do it......please somebody tell me I'm wrong!

There are two on each side of the bumper supports behind the marker lights, one behind the headlights(the one by the battery tray is a bitch) then there are one or two bolts in the wheel wells. on the lower front rockguard/windtray. There are going to be a few you need to remove.... hope that helps! I looked for the link I had to a write up but, I can't find it.

Thx. Jeez, there's quite a few to remove!

Are you saying I've got to strip back the plastic arch guards to get to these bolts for the ends of the bumper?

The plastic guards in the wheel wells need to come off or you can get to the bolt by pulling it back, check out any article on installing JDM's and it should tell you how to remove the front bumper, from what i remember when doing mine there's a good number of bolts
