Step 5:
On each side of the bumper, remove the plastic clips holding the fender liner to the bumper.

Fold back the fender liner so that you can access the one 7mm bolt that holds the bumper to the fender. **Note: This bolt is tricky, it may help to remove the wheel for better access.

With the splash shield removed, you can remove the turn signal and fog light harnesses.

Step 8:
Once the bumper cover is ready to remove, use firm pressure and pull the edge of the bumper to pop it from the clips. Have a helper support one side so that you don't scratch the paint. Slowly remove the bumper.
