I wasn't sure where to start this thread, so if it should be in another area please move.

I need to remove my front bumper cover to install my intercooler. It looks like there is some foam and what not on the bumper between the frame rails and bumper cover, and I am assuming the airbag sensors are in there somewhere?

I guess I am just wondering what has to be permanently removed after installing the intercooler and what considerations I need to take into account for the process.

Thanks!

Take the foam out, and the metal bumper underneath. Air bag sensors are no where near any of that, i believe they are on the frame rail somewhere.

When I first did my FMIC I just trimmed what was needed to install the FMIC and set the rest back on top to help support the facia. That stuff is long gone now

How hard is it to remove the front bumper cover?

Not hard. 2-7mm next to headlight(they need to be up), Three clips across the top, 3 clips under near opening for radiator. clips or bolts at inner fender liners, 2-10mm on either side holding facia to fender. I think that is all of them. Pull bottum out first and rotate up and off. (I think that is everything)
