How to remove rearbar, frontbar, sideskirts ?

[TypeRice]

hi. anyone got detailed info on where each and every bolt is in order to aid me in removing my body kit..
it can be based on stock kit bolt positions..

eg. someone told me the frontbar has 6 bolts.. i only spot 4 on mine etc..
so i need some facts here.

thanks.

you'll have to tell us what car it is, what type of bodykit (factory or aftermarket) and if its aftermarket, is it a bolt on or custom?

on most cars with factory front bars, there should be a bolt or two near each wheel guard, and one between the front headlights at least, there may be others tho.

side skirts, check under the car body, should be easy to find.

rear bar is somewhat similar to the front bar, bolts near wheel guards, and a bolt at the centre.

but this is just a rough outline, some cars have more, others have less. and if its an aftermarket kit, theres a chance that the bolts could be fibreglassed in place by whoever fitted the kit

rear bar; open ur hatch, and along the bottom lining, shud b a few plugs, remove them. on the sides of the bumper, under rear quarter lining, shud b a screw on each side, remove. slide out bumper.

sideskirts, remove all screws underneath and u gota jiggle it towards the rear wheel i fink to get the clips off. it will take some time but eventually wud come off.

front bar, screws under both fenders and, screws on top of grill, and under the car itself , another 2 bolts.

u shud b able to find where all the bolts are, jus by lookn round the body lining. jus screws

lol ur not very car minded?..
install off bodykits is harder thatn pullin em off, especially when u have to drill oles etc for fitmen, the vents are just like a breathing vent for ur car has the flap over it so no shit gets in there, and the foam is just a support behind ur bumper..
