For models from 1986 through 1989, begin by removing the bumper cover-to-body bolts and disconnecting any wiring or components that may obstruct the bumper's removal, then support the bumper, remove the retaining bolts, and detach the bumper and cover assembly, with installation being the reverse of removal. For models from 1990 through 1994, to remove the front bumper, take out the inner wheelwell panels and windshield washer fluid reservoir, while for the rear bumper, remove the mud flap and inner wheelwell panel, then support the bumper, remove the retaining bolts, and detach the assembly, again reversing the process for installation. In the 1995 through 1999 models, for the front bumper, remove the parking/turn signal light and headlight assemblies, inner wheelwell panels, and bumper cover upper mounting screws, then detach the bumper cover from various components, support the bumper, and remove the bracket-to-body bolts before taking off the assembly, ensuring to replace any damaged parts and adjust the headlights post-installation. For the rear bumper, remove the inner wheelwell panel, retaining screws, and upper mounting screws inside the trunk, support the assembly, and disconnect any wiring for the rear marker lights before removing the bumper. In the 2000 through 2002 models, for the front bumper, open the hood to remove retainers, headlight housings, and support bracket nuts, then raise the vehicle, remove retaining screws, and detach the bumper cover, with installation being the reverse. For the rear bumper, remove fasteners from the trim panel, taillight housings, mudguards, and screws securing the bumper cover, then remove the support bracket bolts and the cover itself. In the 2003 through 2005 models, for the front bumper, remove headlight housings, mounting clips, and bolts, then raise the vehicle and detach the bumper cover, with installation being the reverse. For the rear bumper, remove fasteners from the trim panel, mounting bolts, taillight housings, mudguard screws, and cover mounting bracket bolts before removing the cover. For models from 2006 and later, open the hood to remove push fasteners and bolts securing the upper bumper cover, loosen the front wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle, and remove the front wheels and fender inner panel, then detach the bumper cover by removing screws and disengaging locator pins, with installation being the reverse. For the rear bumper, remove taillight housings, push-fastener clips, loosen rear wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle, and remove the rear wheels and fender inner panel, then detach the bumper cover by removing fasteners and screws, pulling firmly to disengage locator pins, and finally reversing the process for installation.
