    jk, jk!!! :p If I had the same bumper as you 01-04 guys I would totally take off the bottom part! (at least until I got a real bumper haha)

    FWIW the plastic parts on my bumper were held on with screws in plastic clips. Pieces o' cake to get it off... Good luck though!

    wait so the lower part of the bumper can come off fairly easily?

    I'm looking at painting my fender flares and so if I could get the front bumper plastic off to paint it, it would be a major bonus!

    woah man! Sorry to hear that! But glad you're ok :)

    was it fully covered?
