Now, there are 3 bolts on the top part of the bumper and one on the side that are 10 mm socket:



The bolt NOT the nut:



Once that is for the marker light (7 MM socket)



Right side is the same with one exception -- you need to disconnect the connector:





Next, you need to take off 6 push pins on the top and 2 10 MM socket bolts:









Protect the bumper and the bottom and just pull -- it comes off very easy:





Now, I'm doing a ZL1 conversion and I'm also installing the brake air ducts so I installed the ZL1 lower radiator shroud:



I had to take a 'bracket' off the old shroud for the OAT sensor:





Rivet and super glue:







Now, I measured up the heat exchanger and had to get some brackets going -- that will be tomorrow.

In the mean time, I installed the Radiator, hoses, fans, transmission lines, and bolted those up. Poured in 2 gallons of Dex-Cool to get it going -- no leaks (yea) and no Dex-Cool in the oil (I checked ;o)!:













Final resting of bumper (I did NOT scrape the bottom -- that is how I bought it ;o):



Now, I figured out where I'll put the pump (and extend the wiring) -- since I have the brake ducts -- need to move it. That will be the next item to do...

Then I'll have to install the CAI from ADM, and once I get those on I'll do a inter-cooler pump test and fill.

More to come!
