Addicted Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 What is the best way of removing a front bumper on an AE80 hatch short (not seca) I want to put the driving lights near the grill and don't think I can get my hand under the bumper to do the nuts up Thanks in advance.

carbonboy Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 (edited) If you remove the front grille, you'll have access to the back-side of the front bumper. If your mounting arrangement dictates front bumper removal (this is from memory, so forgive me if I omit anything): - Undo the fasteners that secure the upper sides of the bumper to the front of the front wheel-arches & the lower braces there. - Remove park-lights, head-lights & grille, disconnect wiring for bumper indicators, you now have access to the 4 main bolts at the front that attach the bumper to the brackets. Undo those & off she comes. :y: Edit: Forgot about the bumper indicator wiring. :oops: Edited March 13, 2013 by carbonboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addicted Posted March 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 (edited) Thankyou so much, I did not even think of just taking the grill out. Thankyou, but If I need to take the bumper out... Thanks again Edited March 16, 2013 by Addicted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
