Front Facia Removal on 14-15

Can anyone link me to a diy on how to remove the front bumper off a 2014-15 Camaro SS? Trying to install my new headlights in a few days and I haven't found anything on the newer model cars. My car also has a 1LE splitter if that changes anything.

I guess my 2013 should be close to the same. There are a couple of bolts towards the outside of the top ledge in front of the radiator. If you take out tool many bolts it won't hurt anything.
Removing the wheel well liners makes it much easier. After removing the liner you can look inside and see 3 bolts securing the facial to the fender. Also one or two small screws in that same area. Unplug the harness from the fog lights, if necessary. Really pretty easy.

Yep, bolts up top, bolts down underneath, and if I remember correctly, 3 bolts on each side behind the wheel liner need to come off. Also, don't forget to unplug the lighting wire harness... should be the same if people are installing 5th Gen ZL1 fascia's on 14-15's.

Yes the steps are the same on all of the 5th gens.

Tools needed - trim tool, 7mm, 10mm and small hands. I also use a 7mm driver because the PITA bolt is hard to get to with a 7mm socket.

6 Plastic push bolts that will need a trim removal tool (or a fork or knife)
2 size 10mm on top
2 size 10mm on center of bottom
3 size torx 15 on each side in the "front of the wheel well"
3 size 7mm on each side where the fenderliners connect to the fascia
1 pain in the ass 7mm connecting fender to fascia
4 size 10mm connecting fender to fascia (3 point forward to the fascia and 1 is perpendicular, where the running light is)
Disconnect harness on pass side

Pull fascia off.

I've done this so many times I get sick thinking about it... But I do it because it makes the car 500 times easier to jack
