tell me about it. right now i drive a civic until i can get enough money for a mustang. a couple years ago i was driving to school on a day where it should have been cancelled. i had to be a good 200 feet until the traffic light, and i lightly tapped the brakes. my car just turned sideways and went into the curb. later that day i saw a woman who plowed her car into one of those big green boxes on the side of the road. ouch!

Hey Matt.. dude, i am not that knowledgable about stangs and especially removing bumper.. i am not sure if really can do it by myself.. so do you think it is easy to remove and put the new one back on? how long it takes to remove and put the new one back on? also, do i need to take the wheels off? i was thinking to drive the car on to ramp and work that way with the wheels on![:@]

thanks

I did not take the wheels off and it took about 1.5 - 2 hours to complete. The instructions say to take the inner wheel lining off which I did not do but I did remove several of the plastic screws that held it on. You will need to get underneath a little bit but it can be done without ramps. Good luck. You can PM me if you need to and I can try to help. You do have to take the rivets off the turn signal holders and then rivet the holders back onto the new bumperbut that is about as tough as it gets.
