So I have this front fascia sitting in the garage and a damaged one on my car from my dukes-of-hazzard incident.:roll2:

oh yea for those who don't know it's a 2000 GrandMa SE

I'm asking
a)how long will it take (estimate) to remove the damaged part and install the new?
b) I want all new fasteners (the plastic ones that break alot, not bolts) so how many of these (part numbers?) will I need?
c) any other hints and tips... you body kit guys should be aboe to help me alot with this!

Many thanks,
Matthew

I would allow a couple of hours. There's the four pins that you remove all the time to get the headlights out. There's two larger pins under the bumper. There might be a few more holding the wheel liners onto the fenders.

Start by removing the headlights and squirting the six bolts (three per side) that hold the bumper cover to the fenders. Pull the wheel liner pins. Undo the six bolts. I used a long extension through the liner to get to the rear bolts. Pull the front pins and the cover is off.

I took a bunch of pictures while the cover was off for reference. If any of the pins need replacing, you can easily get to them when the new cover is on. You can find them all before you start,

Thanks Jim! Apologies for the delay, I've been pretty busy lately.
