I've found a DIY on taking the panels off but the part where you have to pop off the panels from the bumper scares me. The last thing I want to do is ripped it off and end having to freaking purchase a new one. I havnt been able to find any videos out there on how to remove it, all that I have found hats been very useful until the final step (6A and 6B) some scans from the shop manua

Where does everyone live that are planning on going to the gathering, from what I've heard is that it doesn't start until like 8-9pm so depending on where we can all centralize we can grab dinner and then roll out. I work at Fort Bliss and live out into the Cruces area so I'm stuck in EP till then.

Are the clamps plastic or metal, if there metal, you might be able just to fish one of those flexible magnets in there and get them out.

where do you get those flexible magnets? because I lost a spoiler bolt and wasnt able to get it out :(?

Char1ieone · 08-02-2011, 03:22 PM

Nah those fasteners clamps are plastic. I tried to fish out the screwdriver but with no luck at all, its somewhere in there I just can't get to it.

Justin, you can get those magnetic flex hooks anywhere. Harbor Freight, Home Depot, Lowe's, Ace etc.

Char1ieone · 08-03-2011, 10:51 AM

It's in Las Cruces, just get off on Lohman Ave. the turn left until you hit Solano which will be the 4th light and go straight and you will see the bowling alley on your right which is where it'll be.

Hey El Paso....Looks Like I will be in El Paso next week from Sunday evening till Thursday morning. Do Y'all have any get togethers during that time? I would love to meet some of the El Paso / NM brothers and sisters while I'm there.

Char1ieone · 08-03-2011, 12:18 PM

There's the weekly car gathering that happens every Wednesday near downtown, if you're in town it be great to meet up with ya.

Char1ieone · 08-03-2011, 12:24 PM

Does everyone know where Carlos and Mickey's is at next to Viva Chevrolet in El Paso, cause I was thinking how about there for dinner at 6 and then we can head out afterwards for the gathering tonight? Or we can do the Chico's Tacos that about 1 mile down the road from the spot?
