Default Dealer wants $160 for taking off front bumper!

Anyone have a quick link for a DIY? I am trying to install the 04 horns on the MY00.

Thanks!

These are instructions for removing the headlights - which includes removing the bumper:

Damn stealerships. I am now hesitant to even do my 15k service at a dealership. One dealer wants $100. another dealer wants $321!

I'll do it for half! Just kidding. If you are anywhere near Orange County NY, I'd be glad to give you a hand. I've done this many times.

damn. you guys are super friendly!

I pm'ed billman250 to see if i can take care of 15k service and install horns.

On a side note, cops have seemingly attached themselves to me in my area so i am going to just bite the bullet and install the front plate oem style.

I just dont want to be bothered with having to explain myself to cops. Had too much of that in my 350z.

Do you guys know of any "billman250" clones closer to GW bridge? He is way out there in suffolk.

I'm not in your area, but I can have your bumper (either end) off your car in less than 15 minutes, and that's taking my time.
