I don't know all of it, but I do know there are some screws/snaps going up fron underneath, and prolly some in the wheel wells.

ok, i took the tailights out and removed all the fasteners top and bottom from the bumper cover. there is something catching below where the outside corner of the tailights would be. does the bumper cover slide off towards the back or is there just some double sided tape holding it? i dont want to tear anything

thanks again
