DIY: Front Bumper Installation
 
Hey Everybody,
Does anybody have tips on how to put the front bumper back on after removal? I've heard they can be a pain on other cars because of all the clips involved and trying to line them up.

The DIY: Front bumper removal thread gives me confidence to take it off, just worried about messing up the bumper when putting it back on.

FYI: never taken a bumper cover off... if I haven't made it obvious lol.

Haven't done this on my Z yet but what I would suggest to do is putting tape around both side of the fenders so not to scratch the paint when aligning your front bumper back on.

There are excellent YouTube videos that will walk you through the whole thing...

You'll be fine just reverse the procedure and mask about 4" where the headlight and fenders end so you wont scratch the finish.

Have a friend help you pull it off the car and make sure to line up every bolt hole before you start tightening them.
