Re: Which one installs first Bumper or grille

Re: Which one installs first Bumper or grille
Seems to me it works either way. From a novices point of view, bumper last, so you have a clear shot at the grille. Just be careful to not hit the bottom of that grille with the bumper. Two people is best. Three even better.

Re: Which one installs first Bumper or grille
Definitely want to put your bumper on last. I just replaced my front bumper and I made the mistake of putting it on first before the grille and had to take it back off.
