    it is very easy to replace man. Open your hood and rigth above the grills u will see 3 push pins. Snap those out. Then look in the fenderwell u will see 1 bolt holding the bumper to the fender. and liek 3 screws on each side holding it to the fenderwell. And dont forget to unplug your fog light bulbs or take your fogligths out before you do it

    The only tricky part is you will see like a while triangle inside the fender, that doesnt come off. the bumper slides out forward. also there are like 8 push pins in the lower facia if its a GT/GTP bumper.
