Im takin off the front bumper, side skirts, spoiler, rear-bumper, headlights, and eventually the right front fender. Its on a GT obviously, but I have no clue how half this stuff is held on, or what sequence or part removal i need to follow (especially for the front end). Can anyone please tell me the locations of where these parts are held on, and what i need to do to get them off?? PLEASE!!

there are some bolts for the front end that are right at the nose where the hood latch is, then on either side where the fenders connect there are nuts on the inside. you can see those nuts if you crawl underneath the front end alook up in the inner fender wells, they are all hidden in there.the side skirts the tops are held on with a retaining clip that once the screws on the bottm are remove it just slides up and out of the track. I see you are in Canada are you in the hamilton area?

Help with removal

Don't forget about the nut that is next to the door which mounts the fender. Open the door sit on the inside of your car and look straight towards the front of the car in between the door gap and the fender. You'll see what i am talking about.

to get the little rivets off that hold the top end of the front bumper, get a drill bit and drill the hole out, then it pops off
