DISMOUNTING THE OEM BUMPER
DISMOUNTING THE OEM BUMPER
STEP 13
Remove the lower grille insert.
Using a Phillips head screw
driver, remove the 6 screws
holding the metal grille
retainer to the bumper cover.
Using a flat head screw driver,
unclip the lower grille from
the bumper cover and
remove. Set these parts aside
for re-installation after cutting.
STEP 14
Finish taping off the edge of
the bumper cut area. The cut
will follow the top line and
down the valley of the
bumper cover. Tape off
outside of this area to protect
it from contact with the
cutting tool.
Figure 13.
STEP 15
Using a cut off wheel, air saw
or similar type cutting tool,
begin cutting along the top
line and down the valleys of
the bumper cover. The ICI
bumper will cover these cut
areas, so the cuts do not need
to be perfect.

STEP 10
Remove the front plastic trim
cover and fog light harness
from the bumper cover.
Gently pull on the clips until
they come off the bumper.
Using a flat head screw
driver, release the white
plastic retainer pins holding
the trim piece to the front of
the bumper cover.
STEP 12 (SAVE
COMPONENTS)
Using the front plastic trim
cover removed in STEP 10 as
a guide, trace a line with a
sharpie over the tape to act
as a “cutting” line. Once the
line is drawn, remove the
plastic trim cover and set it
aside.
STEP 11
Create a cut line along the
top of the bumper cover by
masking off the top edge
just below the lower grille,
tape off about 2” below the
lower grille opening.
