is there a way, from the front ( as to not have to remove the front bumper)
to pull out those plastic inserts that are on the bottom left and right side of our bumpers?

 

anyone please?

 

You can unbolt the splash guard and reach your hand in there and pop them out

 

is there a pic with these things taken out?
I wanna make sure its not going to look like garbage

 

what are trying to put there? fogs or you just want them out....and what DJ said is the only other way to take them of if you dont wanna take your bumper off...

 

mine just popped out

 

thats what she said....hahahaha

 

lol

it should pop out without removing the bumper, screw driver maybe?

 

it should work with a screwdriver too but im not to gonhoe about the possiblity of scratching the bumper....

 

wrap with thin cloth or paper towel

 

get a 90 degree pick tool and pull it out.

true....

 

It doesn't look very good without them in. There is a "flange" that they sit on so they don't come out backwards. IMO, they look stupid with the grille pieces out.

 

Don't try it from the front, you'll scratch stuff. Undo the two 10mm bolts at the front of the wheel well (rear corner of bumper and the one a foot above that). Shove your arm in there and squeeze the clips on the faux-vents. There's a clip on each side, none on top/bottom. If your arm isn't skinny enough, find a small child to do it for you, haha.

And yes, it will look pretty terrible. The hole in the bumper there isn't a nice tidy vent, it's cut really weird and looks stupid exposed. I'll look for a pic.

Ok awesome thanks for the information.
I guess th ebest option would be putting the VRD's in there.

 

yes it would...but if you were taking them out for the hell of it...no dont do it..

 

My bottom right one fell out.... Any idea what these are called? i've been searching but cant find that part.

I definately will not go to the dealership, because last time the middle piece fell inside the bumper, they charged me 100 bucks to snap it back in!!! I should have done it myself from the start.

 

Still looking for this....if anyone can help...i'd appreciate it.

Just get it from the dealer. It should be really cheap and a baby could install it.

 

do you happen to know what the specific name of this part is. ?
