I've read the .pdf for removal of the front bumper for adding certain accessories (gold emblems, brush guard, different grill, fog lights etc).

But has anyone actually done it yet and are there any surprises ... like there are with those spring loaded headlight thingys

thanks

It's really quite easy but helps if you have two people doing it. It will pull right off, it does have some friction clips I guess you call them but it amounts to nothing more than a slight tug to get it off.

... I guess I should have asked the opposite question. Once you get bumper off is it just as easy to put back together. I worry about those friction clips.

They remind me of some clips I once encountered in an old Mopar door panel... could just not quite get it seated back on again.

Snapped right back in for me. Probably one of the easiest things I've done so far on the truck.
