are you wanting to replace it?

there are two screws on top that you have to undo you have to top the hood to get to them. then there and a few in each fender well. and then dont forget the air dam plate that has four screws in the bumper and take the blinkers out. and that should be good.

there are people on here with better directions. i haven't taken mine off its too much work lol. i've replaced my grill by just removing the grill with the bumper still on the car.

i jsut looked under my car. i see if i move the wheels all the way to one side i can easily change the Turn signals without the front bumper removal.

BUT!!!! yes theres a "but" lol. i want to paint my stock upper and lower grills to a better black. i was wondering, has anyone remvoed there grills without taking off there bumper? if so please let me know a easier way. id like to save a headache or 2 by not removing the bumper jsut to removal my upper and lower stock grills.

just lift the car onto jackstands or a set of ramps. cause can get to the marker lights with the bumper still on the car.. but the air plate will need to come off. i just thats the name for it. it keeps the road trash from going into the engine bay. once thats off you should be able to get to them with no problem

Did you pull the wheel well liners? That makes it really easy.
