Taking a 95' bumper off. - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #69804 4 posts Started by CastrolCelica
I'm trying to take off my 95 "smiley" bumper and running into some problems. I took off the 10ish bolts on the bottom, ancors on the inside of the mouth, the metal bar in the inside of the mouth that was attached with pins, and then the top trim and bolts that's under the front of the hood.

The top is loose, and so is the bottom.. but it feels attached in the very center, yet I don't see any bolts when i pull the bumper back from the top.

How do I take this off? Any detailed pictures and/or instructions would greatly help. Thanks!
There are three bolts (10mm) that attach the front bumper skin to each of the front quarter panels. You have to loosen the wheel well liners and then get a 10mm deep socket into the front of the wheel well. the bolts face back towards the rear of the car. Don't have any pics, but I think there are multiple threads here which describe replacing the headlight assemblies. Hope this helps a little.

your bumper is still attached to the front of the fenders.
good luck with it and be sure to search there is an amazing amount of information on this site.
