Started to strip the front end today, in regards the bumper I assume there are a couple of additional screws on the front edge of the wings/fenders ? I have the 4 bolts from the inside removed and the 2 plates at the sides.

do you have to remove the fan/cooler to gain access to these screws at the front ?

any help appreciated

No need to remove the coolers.

Remove 3 pieces under the bumper - Phillips screws
Remove front wheel well liners - Phillips screws
Remove 3 screws each side from inside near the oil/AC coolers - 8mm ??
Remove 4 screws at top under where hood closes - Phillips screws

Then just slide it forward carefully watching not to pull too hard because of headligh. Washer hoses.

Not hard, just take your time.

Cheers Swiftii,

I have done all of the things on your list, so I am assuming its the washer pipes thats holding it on will give it a gentle pull tomorow.

Just did the grills this weekend. I took out the liners and did a clean up. Just wanted to revive the thread. Definitely helped guide me along so thank you to the OP. I used a 90 degree pick to get out the clips. Worked great. Took me three tries to get bumper back on perfectly by myself. I took my time and ground down the screw heads so they wouldn't puncture the headlight washer lines. Kept one to start the holes and then replaced with ground screws. Finally protected 4 yrs later.
