Replacing Front Bumper

[clark354uk]

Hi,

 

Does anybody know how easy or difficult it is to replace the front bumper on a Zed?

 

Is this something that I would have to get done at a body shop or, could I do it myself?

 

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Didn't read it but looks good.

Remove 10mm bolts on bottom edge.

 

Pop the front edge of the wheel well lining out from behind the fascia lip up to the fender seam -- you'll do the following on both sides.

 

Use a 10mm socket on an 18" extension, run it up vertically between the front fascia and wheel lining. You'll see two machine screws -- remove both. On the lower part of the fascia bracket you'll see (or feel) a bolt. It's just inboard and below the two screws (the fascia bracket is bent down) -- remove the bolt.

 

 

Pop the six plastic fasteners on the top -- pop center part up about half way and the fastener will come out very easily.

 

You're done! Pull the fascia off! This takes me about 10 minutes to do.

 

To reinstall, just do the steps in reverse.
