Stock P5 bumper

[DigginYellowP5]

Hey guys or girls,

I was just wandering how hard it is to remove the front bumper of my P5. I just purchased the Wings West bumper and should be in this week sometime. It is already painted so all I need to do is put it on. I just need to know if I need certain tools and all that good stuff. If anyone has a "How to" send it my way

it isnt bad at all. i took mine off in the MSP in maybe an hour, but that was because it was the first time doing it. now i could do it in like 1/4 of the time. i dont have a how to tho, but im pretty sure someone else does. this is all from memory btw, so it might be wrong....theres just like 3 of those snap screws in each wheel well, then you pull the well away and there are 2 screws you take out (on each side). then theres a screw underneath on each side and just some miscellaneous screw-age on the underside. then it just pulls out.
all you need is a screwdriver and a 10mm (if i recall correctly)socket wrench

You can also check out fmprotege.com and look at their install manual. One of the things required is removing the bumper and they give you instructions with a diagram displaying where the bolts are.
