Taking the front bumper off
Any one have pictures of screws, bolts, and plastic push pins that need to be removed to take off the front bumper?
Thanks,
Sam

Its fairly easy... all bolts are visible except for the two studs that come out of the fenders. You will have to lay under the car with a long extension and loosen them.

From the top take off the push pins and two 10mm bolts. Might as well take off the two front wheels and take off the screws on the inner front fender panel and bottom. I believe they're either 8mm and just use a nut driver or makita. Now from the bottom and that panel removed, look up and you'll see two 10mm nuts. Take a 1/4" ratchet w/ and extension to a deep 10mm socket. At this point I would take blue masking tape and mask the area of the bumper attaching to the front fenders. This will just prevent scratches during reinstallation. Once the 10mm nuts are removed you can lift the top edge where the pushpins used to be up and tilt forward allowing the disconnect of wire connectors before fully removing.
This is based on the tigershark and a setup not using the stock shroud so there may be some additional work there..
