Instruction

Here are given the simple steps to replace your bumper bracket or side support without much trouble.

  • Using a door trim panel tool, unfasten the clips/screws holding the bumper cover in place. You may need to access the clips/screws from inside the wheelwell. Take the bumper cover away from the vehicle. Place the bumper on a safe place to prevent any damage to it.
  • Detach any wires or connectors from the bumper like fog lights, etc.
  • On right and left side of the vehicle under the fender, you will find bumper brackets or side supports. Unfasten the two bolts holding the bumper brackets.
  • Examine the area around the bumper brackets for any signs of damage.
  • Take new bumper brackets and install them on their respective places. Secure them with bolts.
  • Replace the bumper cover on the bumper brackets and secure it with the clips/screws. Make sure that all the clips/screws are tight enough.
