Zedrush Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 Hi guys sorry if this has been posted before, still cant use the damn search button that well, I tried on the my350z site about how to remove front bumper looks pretty sraight forward then realised they didnt have to worry about the front washers So question is, how straight for is removing the front bumper, does the car need to be jacked up? Do the washers uplug easy enough, whats the worst that can happen, can a moron like me who can just about install an induction kit do it? Quote

Zedrush Posted October 16, 2007 Author Posted October 16, 2007 Thanks mate but thats just a standard front U.S bumper not U.K bumper with washers Quote
H5 Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 If you put your nail / credit card under the washer you will find it is 'spring loaded' (not exactly, but it extends up with very little effort) and can be lifted up. With one hand or a pair of pliers you can hold the washer proud of the bumber and work at unclipping the painted cover. Other than that, it's a bolt and panel clip removal effort in the arches and along the top / bottom of the bumper. If that makes sense!! Quote

It can then be lifted clear. Hold the washer away from the bumper with one hand ( or even better Limiters hand). The panel can then be removed by undoing the bolts and panel clips in the arches and the top/bottom of the panel. Quote
