I just got my body kit and I'm curious to whether or not if anyone could help me. How do I take off the stock front bumper so that I can put my new kit on. And is there an easy way for me to drill the holes instead of using guess work to put the holes in. Please help. thanks

 

have you got it off yet or are you still waiting for some assistnce.

without know waht kit you got i can't be much help, but may i suggest looking at your installation directions reading them thuroughly and maybe working them backwards might help get your original off.

 

Getting it off seems pretty easy. I had to move the passenger side when I was putting on my reflectors. You just take off the splash guards in the wheel well and one of the screws connects the bumper to the fender. I'm not sure about the middle, but the sides seem pretty easy.

 

well, the kit didn't come with any instructions. so i just have to figure it out myself i guess. i just don't want to screw it up

 

did you try e-mailing the manufacturer of the kit for tech support?

 

yah, they didn't have much to say

 

who did you get the kit from so the rest of us can avoid them, or hastle the *&^% out of them till the get some better tech support.

 

i have the passenger and driver side bolts out..it is lose. i took five bolts out of the middle and like four plastic clips out. everything that is visible is out. i can tug the passanger and driver side parts off but the middle seems to be stuck. oh, and i took out the lower clips, the two little stems under the car. but the thing still won't come out. i took the driver side headlight out but i can't see why the bumper won't come off

 

there are alot of clips and a few bolts. you will have to take both headlights out anyway . Take your time and don't try to force anything off. there are alot of clips underneith the car be sure you get all them.

 

Under the wheel well there is a bolt on each side holding the corners in place. It should slide forward and out after that.

 

i finally figured it out. there were two behind the lower grill. but i didn't figure it out until i got mad and just tugged. i broke those two clips but i won't need them for the evo vii bumper. now i'm having a problem getting the front support bar off. there are (i think) four bolts holding it on. I can't get them loose to save my life. Has anyone had trouble getting a fiberglass hood to latch on the lancer. Mine won't, the only way i think it will latch is if i risk slamming it and then i think it will split or crack and i don't want to do that. any suggestions
