headlights out. first, then three pins on the top near the bumper support. then 3 10 mm's on each side under header lights between the fender and bumper, the heads are facing the ground. I also think there is one more 10 mm, on the side as well facing the rear of the car near where fender connects to the bumper. from there 3 more pins under the bumper where the curve is up to the rad. also you may need to remove several 8 mm's holding the covers for the fogs and what not under neath. should be cake.
