Default Front middle fascia bumper

How does one remove the middle piece of the bumper on the Camaro to get that different look? is it bolted on? How does that work?

dont just yank it off you need to be careful with it or you'll crack your bumper. just slightly pull from one side while putting your feet against the bumper and you should be fine

if your bumper cracks before the 1/8" plastic clip breaks, you've got a problem. keep your feet off the bumper if you like your paint.

start on the left side. pull it in toward the center of the car, and out toward you. do the same on the right side. pull the top down and out, and the bottom up and out.

And if you're that worried, just cut it out.
