well, here's a link to one of our old FAQ archives that I saved. It's for tranny cooler installation, but somebody also posted up info on how to remove the front bumper I think so give it a look-see
first time it'll take u a while eyeballing where all the screws and shit are. after you do it a lot you'll be able to take off the whole front bumper in 5 minutes or less
yeah- it's gotten to the point where I'd rather remove the bumper than go through fenderwell to get to the insides...just remember- 5 clips on the top...4 clips on the bottom...and 2 screws...10mm....and voila...done... can i ask why you're removing it? I didn't bend over to look carefully when I wanted to remove the front license plate...and thinking that it was similar to the Civic, I thought there were bolts/nuts on the inside of the bumper...but there weren't......so all that for nothing...
one thing i would reccommend doing instead of what most directions tell you to do. to heat up the silicone to get it apart, most directions tell you to use a hair dryer or a heat gun. i did this on my left headlight, and it took me about 30 minutes to get it open and i opened the seal unevenly. for my right headlight, i stuck it in the oven at the lowest temp and left em in there for like 3 minutes, and then the silicone just peeled right apart the seal was even. when i put them back together, the left light leaked but the right light didnt even though i resealed them both. just a word of advice to make the job easier.
