Today, we're doing a bumper replacement on a 2015 Lexus NX200T. Now you'll have to transfer over
this lower valence piece. In order to do that on each side, there's two Phillips head
screws on this side. One, two and then there's one clip right here, push pin clip
and then there are these clips right here. There's one. There's about
seven of them now eight of them total and then there'll be four of these clips right here.
So we'll start off by taking off
and remove these push pins.
Kind of at an awkward angle, so a little tough to get to.
And then with these clips you can either push them out with your finger or use a flathead screwdriver.
The way they work is you just push down to release the clip and then pull this one out,
then you pop out these four clips one
two
three and four and that'll allow you to allow you to separate the valence piece
which you will be transferring over to your new bumper. So you also have to transfer over
these covers and they're just in there like this you just kind of wiggle it out.
One of them already fell out
and then you will also have to transfer over this rubber molding piece or plastic molding piece
which in order to remove this, you can use a heat gun it is on there via double-sided tape.
So you can remove this via heat gun and then reapply double-sided tape and transfer it
open to your bumper. You'll also be transferring over these foam blocks if they're just stuck on
via tape or sticky glue. We'll be reapplying these with double sided tape.
So transferring over the valance, you can just put line these clips up, push it into place.
Turn the bumper over.
So now we'll be installing these white clips on the left side. They
face one direction on the right side. They face another direction, so push them in.
There are eight of these.
Now once those are in place, you can put in the two push pins so you line push pin up
and push it through the hole and then push the center of the pin to lock it in place.
Now we'll put the Phillips screws back,
then repeat this on the other side. So we transfer all these foam pieces we cut out a piece of
double-sided sticky tape which you can buy at any parts store, Walmart, any grocery store basically
and then on the new bumper there is actually an outline for it.
So you just line it up and press it on same thing on the other side line it up press it on.
Now we're ready to install it onto the card.
Installation is basically the reverse of the removal, so we'll start off by doing the four bolts,
two on each corner. There are eight plastic clips for that plastic valence piece on the
bottom. Two bolts on each corner connecting the bumper to splash shield. There's also
one push pin clip on each side of the bumper and then once those are all complete you can now pop
the the fender flare back on be its clips and then it has three clips on the inner and one holder.
You'll transfer over these painted covers.
Now we're installing this plastic build piece.
Might be a couple rocks in there you might want to shoot down a couple thousand rounds.
So now we're going to attach the splash shield
or the bumper to the bottom of the splash shield. The splash shield isn't required to be removed.
The other side.
okay so you'll be installing this push pin right here before you put on the fender flare.
So you just put it in there and press repeat on the other side as well.
With a fender flare you just line up the
clips.
Once the clips are lined up you insert these clips.
And there's one bolt as well.
One last.
Okay.
And this completes our rear bumper replacement for the 2015 Lexus NX200T.
