Does anyone know the process to replace the front bumper cover (the black painted part)? If I were to swap out for a carbon fiber one, does that require removing the entire front bumper assembly?

No, the front bumper fascia is just that, a cover. It comes off with a few screws here and there.

^^^ I dont have the GT500 manual, but I can't imagine it is too different than the 350.

Don’t have to pull the front bumper to access those screws? Maybe just pull the splitter to access up from underneath to get to the backside?

IIRC, remove screws along top of cover where the hood closes, the bottom splitter, and in the wheel well. The pain in the ass were the two side screws just aft of the headlight. Thats it. Just disconnect the turn signal wiring etc

I am quite sure you have to remove the whole bumper.

I like to disassemble things.

That looks incredible and your GT500 is gorgeous! I'm hoping to get myself one of those or a GT350 someday... I'm a little late to this party but I am planning on getting the swing soon for my GT. Just wondering if you had to get a clear coat applied or anything to prevent yellowing? I'm reading conflicting information about what to do with new carbon fiber all over the place. So any info would be much appreciated!
