So today In order to replace a simple light bulb in my rear tail light I had to take the stupid plastic/rubber corner bumper off. I was NOT going through the hassle to put it back on.

I plan on removing the other 3 on the other corners so all corners look the same. I took a look at the front ones and found I think 4 torx bit bolts however one of the bolts is wedged under the headlight housing/frame...I don't know what to call it. It looks like its actually part of the body that does not come off, a part that things mount to.

Here is my question, how the crap do you get to that screw? or should I remove the 3 I can get to and just rip the thing off?

Tools I have available: basic sockets and wrenches, yes I do have the torx head bit and driver. I have NO power tools, hammer, etc etc.... very basic stuff.

Thanks for the input.

 

did your bumper get pushed in? You should be able to get to all the bolts. There will also be 2 on each side that bolt into the bottom of your fender.

 

It may have gotten pushed in or put back on wrong....I answered my own question and just removed the ones I could and just tore it off when I couldnt go any further haha. That was fun. Also found out that my Jeep was white at some point during its life

 

Ha! Nice!

 

if you don't plan on putting the things back on then just tear them all off... thats what i've done to a couple of my jeeps

 

Yeah, they are not going back on, I tore the ones up front off, at some point I will finish the job and get rid of the fender flare things too. The problem after that will be paint. Need to find some silver paint or something. Maybe even some black hurculiner type stuff for where the fender flares were .

 

got 3 of four off, It got too dark for the last one and I have no decent lighting for out there. I will tear the last one off sometime tomorrow.

 

ive been thinking about doing that to mine could ya post some pics??? i got mine half off and backed out. i kinda wanna see what it looks like first. thanks

 

me to post pics

 

I got all 4 off. It looks kind of strange right now because there are little sections of white paint where the rubber things use to be. When I get a mem card for my cam I will post some up here.

Aside from the paint looking strange the overall look is pretty cool.

 

honestly dont be a girl rip it off i did it its just rubber/plastic bull****

 

just run into a brick wall with the corners, should rip them off haha

 

yea im just kinda skidish to rip mine off then hate it lol
