Honda Repair: 02 Civic EX front bumper, inner fender, plastic shell


Question
I need to remove the front bumper fascia of my son's 2002 Civic to pop out a dent in the plastic.  What is involved in removing the plastic shell for this repair?

Answer
Jon, it's fairly simple. Remove the 4 clips under the hood. There will be 6 clips underneath, 2 on the end by the inner fender and 4 in the middle. Remove the 2 screws on the bottom that secure the inner fender and the 2 screws that secure the bumper to the fender. Then pull out either side by where the fender screw is and pull out toward the front of the vehicle, it should pop out. Hope this helps, RICK
