Has anyone ever changed the front bumper on an 09 or up yet. I am planning on ordering a new chrome bumper and changing it myself but I was just worried it may be pretty difficult if it has airbag sensors or anything like that attached. or is it a simple bolt on bolt off? any help would be greatly apprectiated.

 

Just bolt on/off. Would just need to unplug the fog lights if you have them.

 

Oh man how cool, thank you very much!

 

Hey, where did you get that cool pic from?

 

Sorry, I just saw this. I am considering getting my front bumper powerdercoated because of rock chips and while searching online about how to remove the bumper I found a PDF of the section of the service manual about removing the bumper. I just took a screen shot of that PDF.

 

Oh, ok. I thought you had some bootleg link to the service manuals. Like the one that used to exist until they 'fixed' the link.

 

I know, old post, but I didn't find much searching. I'm assuming the airbag is triggered by an inertia switch rather than sensors in the bumper? The file that was attached here before is gone. I'd love to swap out my chrome bumpers for color matching ones like the FX4 and STX.
