installing jdm grill

hey i just baught a jdm grill off ebay and i was wondering if you have to remove the front bumper at all to put the grill on or is it just a few screws on the old grill that you have to mess with? thanks.

I would just remove front bumper. Uppergrill is held by screws and clips.
Check out DIY section for front bumper removal.

sspem2 has a spectacular aura aboutsspem2 has a spectacular aura about
1. pop hood.
2. theres two clips holdin the front bumper take them off.
3. theres a screw in each wheel well take them off.
4. then if you have a stock bumper theres about 3-4 clips on the bottom. you must get on your knees to see. take them off.
5. take bumper off.
6. theres 4 clips holdin the grill to the bumper and 2 lil screws. take them off.
7. put on altezza grill with the hardware that the stock grill was holding.
8 do everything i said in reverse putting the bumper back on.

enjoy your altezza grill.

go to the diy section. It shows you how to take off the bumper.


And because my team humiliated ya'll this year I feel bad, I will help you out with a little hint. Do a search for alot of things. It will save you from being flamed alot.


Welcome to the site and enjoy.
