Josh...since you guy's have changed the grille's a number of times, what's involved with the bumper removal and about how long does it take, as I haven't seen any other pics on the net, but ready to pull the trigger.We changed out the grill for another project we are working on. We are sending out quite a few, so hopefully we will see some installed pics soon. Thanks
Josh
HiJosh...since you guy's have changed the grille's a number of times, what's involved with the bumper removal and about how long does it take, as I haven't seen any other pics on the net, but ready to pull the trigger.
Bumper removal is super easy... Screws attaching it to the top after you remove the radiator shroud/cover.Josh...since you guy's have changed the grille's a number of times, what's involved with the bumper removal and about how long does it take, as I haven't seen any other pics on the net, but ready to pull the trigger.
Sounds much easier though if the car is up in the air. Is it possible to do it without lifting the car up?Bumper removal is super easy... Screws attaching it to the top after you remove the radiator shroud/cover.
There is 1 screw, per side that is accessible from pulling the splash guard/inner fender.. Screw is located where the bumper mates with the fender. I found it easier to pull the entire thing ( we had mine in the air, wheels off)
For the bottom you'll need to disconnect it the screws securing the bellypan/splash guard attaching to the bottom of the front bumper.
At this point it's a good time to disconnect your fogs, turn signals etc. (3 plugs per side)
After this, another person is really needed - With a bit of force pull on the edge of the bumper where it meets the front fender (Where you removed the 1 screw) The bumper is attached with clips, Lil bit of force and they pop right out. (Can be a bit intimidating your first time pulling on it)
Hope that helps ? It is a pretty easy task, But appears very daunting/intimidating.. Just take your time the first go around, and afterwards you'll be like "Wow, That's it ?"..
I'd imagine so, If you can get the front tires off it will be a bit easier.Sounds much easier though if the car is up in the air. Is it possible to do it without lifting the car up?
DiEzel.....Thanks...that's kind of what I was looking forHope that helps ? It is a pretty easy task, But appears very daunting/intimidating.. Just take your time the first go around, and afterwards you'll be like "Wow, That's it ?"..
We sent two sets of Magnetic out Friday, so hopefully they'll post them up. If you buy a set and don't like them, we will buy them back. They look great in person. :cheers:Hmm. I'd sure like to see these on a Magnetic car.
On the other hand, they might look pretty cool in gloss black with ANY color to add a little gloss black to the grille to break up the texture and look. Maybe along with a gloss black grille pony. ;)
Thanks for posting. Please shoot some pictures when you get them on. We'd love to see that!I've got mine but its gonna have to warm up a bit before I paint them and put them on.
I will definitely get pictures. I have a guard gt with lethal grill delete. I am going to do a contrasting color that will match a couple fender stripes, the mirrors, and maybe a rocker stripe. Not sure on everything yet...just too cold to paint with these 10° days.Thanks for posting. Please shoot some pictures when you get them on. We'd love to see that!
