alright so we're gonna start on the side of the bumper first. we're gonna have to
turn the wheel that way to get into those bolts or screws. there gonna be like a T20
so you will need one of these things. t20 they look like a star-looking thing.
so there's gonna be 1, 2, and 3. I am missing one up here so I have this one. Whoa,
went the wrong way.
alright, so it looks like that. that exact same bolt is up top also. you can
see on the top right there we're gonna take that off. same exact bolt right there. now we're gonna
do that on the other side right there. the next step will be to go under the vehicle.
and there is usually like a cover over here. but on this vehicle, it doesn't have the cover.
so usually when you look at that part you are gonna have to
follow the bottom all the way to the other side and you'll see
bolts or push pins. let me show you how the bottom of the bumper actually looks.
on the new bumper, it's indicating that there is a over that was attached to this.
so with that attachment, you're gonna notice it's like a black thing that goes on the bottom.
follow that black piece and you should see bolts or push pins to take off.
alright guys, if you come on top of the bumper right here you're gonna see uh these same thing,
t25 bolts your gonna have to take those off. its gonna be for the grille area.
alright so, lets see. its my first time doing this let's see.
I think it's only right here. lets try this one out
that's one. I am following this around to see if there are more of these screws. i see one here
there was one here but that one is gone. There is another one right there.
and I believe the bumper should come right off so let's try it out.
okay so now that I removed the top part.
and remember you guys kinda have to look at it and see if there is any more bolts down there but this
one doesn't have the grill area so I'm gonna just try to pull it off let's see if that works out.
while I'm pulling i am feeling it's snagging on the top part of the bumper right here.
i believe you can pull this off,
there you go. alright so what I noticed on this bumper right here. you see these clips,
I believe you have to just pull the bumper out and that should release the clips.
go on one side and so keep it there if you guys have fog lights make sure you don't
pull it out too fast because you dont want to rip the wire. pull it out slowly like how
i did it and then once you guys pull out the bumper go behind and unhook that wire
harness kinda hold onto it. its off like that
alright guys i would show you how to take off the accessories but unfortunately,
this car doesn't have any accessories. so for the most part,
for the most part, guys, if you look at our previous videos on how to remove bumpers we'll
show you how to remove accessories but they're pretty much the same thing. there is usually
clips right here that disconnect and push out and then that will take it off. or there is like
little screws that you need to take off but let's go ahead and put this bumper back together.
unfortunately, this bumper still won't have the accessories because the customer didn't want
the accessories so we're just gonna put the bumper back on.
so actually on this one right here I'm gonna show you how easy it is to actually put this on.
so again it's fairly simple to put on. it has these clips right there and all you do
is line it up with the holes like right there and you push down on it. uh the way to remove
it is the same thing but you push up and you kinda unclip it from these little clips right here
alright, so the other one didn't fit correctly because it was the wrong one.
so that's why you always make sure the clips itself
are lined up with the holes before you start jamming it in. the other one was a 2016 year
and we needed the 2015. so one year off made a big difference on these grilles.
so as you guys can see whenever the grill is all lined up you can just go ahead and hit down with
your hand and it should pop into place. so we can go ahead and install this bumper right here
alright let's go ahead and put this back on.
so we're gonna push the middle piece in place first because it's just held
on by those clips so the bumper doesn't fall off.
alright you have to push it hard because it's kinda sung in there and its a brand new bumper.
plus i had an issue with the headlight right there.
you saw me kinda push it down it had to go under the headlight but now its all clipped in.
that's how its supposed to look that now is broken but as you can see its clipped in there
so that's what you want to see. so now were gonna go to the sides
there is bracket so put it on top of the bracket it push it in.
this customer right here didn't want to change out there bracket right here. so is am doing my
best to slide it in there. it kinda goes on but it would go on if you had a new bracket
but I'm gonna go ahead and put this part on and it should be good to go.
so again, there is 1,
there 1 up here, there is another one right here, two, three, there is like four of them.
now we're gonna do the other side.
okay now we're gonna do the grill. this one all you have to do is slide it into place.
so it's gonna go underneath this little latch right here. so
it's lined up but because of this accident right here.
because of the accident right here, its pushing it this way
now the headlight is causing it to not line up correctly. I may have to modify the headlight now.
all the bolts line up except for this one.
now its good. I'm gonna screw this one in place. for you guys, it shouldn't be that hard.
alright so the other thing i would of done to this car would be to put the under piece back on.
so it can hold securely but this one did not have it also doesn't have the fog light covers.
for the most part the car, it looks a lot better than when it came in with it. so again you know
some customers can't afford all of it which is fine. fix what you can fix a little bit then
fix the rest later on. this is what the customer is gonna do. so we're gonna fix the
fender headlight, the fender liner and she pretty much needs the hood too.
but that is okay she wanted to get the bumper fixed which is fantastic it looks
great the color match looks fantastic. so she should be a happy customer!
