This video was made by a company to demonstrate how to replace the headlights with aftermarket ones but what is also included is a step by step video on how to remove your front clip.

Great for those doing an FMIC upgrade or Headlamp replacement

Ive taken my bumper off many times and you dont have to take off all 12 clips I believe its only 8 plastic clips and 6 bolts. Im just saying....

 

Just yank it off. I doubt a human being can make it crack just by pulling it off.

 

I've taken my bumper off a dozen time and everytime I'm still finding clips/screw that I've forgotten to put back on lol

 

i cant take it off, there is some sort of black shaft holding the fender and bumper together on the drivers front side. iam trying to remove the bumper to install some bulbs i just bought. plz help

 

????

 

those lights looks nice

 

Front bumper removal is much easier when you get to the fender clips, if you pull back your liner just a bit on both sides and use your finger to disengage the rear most clip. Several people said to just yank it hard, but when I put pressure on mine, the top fender would move, no way I was going to yank it. It comes off with even less effort if you just disengage the clip illustrated below and pull straight out to disengage the remaining push clips.

 

Thanks SiliconTek & CamaroSS_2002... I was running into these problems. Huge Help!

 

it was so annoying yanking that off, and the worst part is when i was done changing the Mr front grill i had two srews left so i pulled it off again HAHA

 

sweet thanks for the video! now i can take the bumper off myself!

 

where did the vid go?

 

is this the same for the regular lancer?

 

nice video!!

 

looks like a pretty big pita last car i took my bumper off my ripped one of my fender liners off the next day because i missed one clip
