I am going to take my front bumper off to fix a small crack in it and I can't find any info on removing it. Can anyone help? This is for a '90 s13

If you remove the head lights its makes it ezer to unbolt the front end

Just start unbolting stuff. The trickiest part is where it connects to the fenders. It's easiest to reach those thru the wheelwell with a long extension. Liners removed of course.

headlight removal would help out alot,
1) pop your hood, remove 3-4 bolts on the upper apron

2) jack your car up and start unbolting all those little bolts that outline your bumper, if it's a se you also have unbolt the chin seperatly.

3) cock wheel in one direction, unbolt splash guard, here's the tricky part, best to go with a gear wrench or a open end wrench to unbolt the fender from the bumper, if you don't remove the headlights, the last bolt on the top of the fender will look impossible, though i did mines with the headlight on.

4) almost forgot, in the mouth of the bumper there should be 6-8 clips which will pop out or you can unscrew them.
