What have you done to your P5 today?

[Tengo]

That would have sucked to get overspray on the car. I will be removing mine! LOL!!!

nope, no overspray, i taped around that sucker good.

 

[redpr5]

are they just clips or are there screws?

i think theyre screwed onto the bumper but i have no idea. all i know is that on the bottom of the one on the drivers side there is about a 1/4" gap between the bumper and the edge of the light. i could pull if off my bumper if i felt so inclined lol

That doesnt sound good, if indeed they are attached by screws!

 

[Tengo]

no they are not, that just slide right out, i think you have to push them away from you or something while you push them from the inside, i forgot, but they are not screwed i know that

sounds like there are clips that squeeze together to get them out. Maybe if you take it out and bend the tab back so it stays in? Does that make any sense?

nah, the bottom is kicked out. theres like a 1/4" gap between the bottom edge and the bumper, i can get the tips of my fingers behind the light

[reynoldsrobbie]

I am getting better at my old age now. Now I ask for help or run to the forum.

 

[redpr5]

haha yea. ive learned the hard way about a few things, such as overtightening bolts with a socket wrench.....yea, snapped the head off one of the ones in my spoiler and then attempted to drill it out. lol, yea didnt work. then i was like, wait the autoexe spoiler doesnt use all 4 bolts so i put it back on the car (i was fixing the rattle so it was weatherstripped everywhere, so i wasnt concerned with water) and hey it worked!
