Steps
Remove the grille
Open the hood, remove the grille fasteners, and release its rear tabs. Slide the grille forward and place it on a soft surface to avoid scratching it.
Release the bumper cover
Remove fasteners near the headlights, top clips, wheel-well screws, and lower bolts. Disconnect the parking and signal lamp sockets, then release the bumper sides from their clips.
Fit the replacement cover
Align the cover with the body and press its side clips into place. Reconnect the lamp sockets, reinstall lower and wheel-well fasteners, then refit the grille.
Check the final fit
Confirm the bumper is evenly seated and every fastener is installed. Test the parking and turn-signal lamps before driving.
Check your vehicle’s repair manual for exact specifications and fit.
