H3 FASCIA. Front Bumper/Fascia Face REMOVAL

I was looking on the parts list shows only one push pin there has to be more. Anyone know what it takes to get the cover off ?

My girl hit a deer Bambi 1 H3 ZERO broke the inner bumper filler so the driving lights are all over gonna try and patch in with fiberglass before spending $200+

Thanks Jaws

I have always read It is easiest to remove the entire front bumper, and then attempt removing the plastic facia. It's been a while since I pulled mine off, but I believe there are two 13mm bolts in each wheel well, as well as 2 in the lower opening of the grill and the 2 that hold the skid plate also hold the bumper on. That will let you see what you are doing and allow you to get to all the clips. I think I have pictures somewhere if you want to PM me.

Here is a link to the Manual

The hardest part is getting the retaining clips off. I believe there are six across the front. After I removed the grille, I had more space to maneuver, but the ones under the headlights are the hardest. I just used a flat head and gently pried them up and off. There are two each under the headlights and two in the center. The other retainers are easier to find. Hope this helps. I just did it a few weeks or so ago, and it drove me batsh*t crazy until I got them out 😂

There are pictures in my gallery of the position of the retainer clips.
