you wont mess it up, i did mine on monday, just have a friend help you out. the bumper is real easy to get off, the only hard part is after seperating the headlight and getting out the chome piece. but it was not really all that bad

dude, its really easy. Hawk and i did his last week. the hardest part isnt even taking off the bumper...its like vandal said, separating the pieces you just need to slowly but firmly get them apart. and after, just admire a job well done. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

the hardest part is actually gettin the nutts up to do it. i was just as scared as you are now to do it but you just got to do it. me and Pbfoot had it apart in no time flat. As a recomendation, do it when it's hot out it seemed to make it alot easier. And oh yeah the D.I.Y aint exactly perfect, well for my car at least, inside the headlight, once apart the chrome piece on the lens is held on by hex screws not a philips head like it says. Anywho do it yourself, you won't regret it when your done.

Do it yourself or get someone on the board to do it for you. If you goto a shop, they will charge you alot of money.
