fenders

[91cb7h22poss]

im talking to a guy about swapping fenders, how hard is it to take my fenders off and how long would it take?

[ikayto]

probably 20 mins because you have to take off your bumper

[91cb7h22poss]

ok, sounds like a pain, but is there anything else that needs to come off aside of the bumper?

[stretch JDM]

the corner lights.i think but no big deal.no man its not hard. you can do it .

[wherm]

front bumper, headlights/corners, wheel liners (partial), and rocker claddings. That's a couple that weren't previously mentioned. You may be able to cheat that bottom 10mm bolt out without removing the rocker claddings, but they may get stretched or chewed up in the process. Easy enough to remove. Take out all the clips or screws whatever on the underside, remove the screw on the front end, then pound it forward from the rear end and it'll slide forward off of the clips. Then do a 1/4-1/2 turn on all the clips to easily slide them out of the rocker. Simply slide the clips back into the rocker molding and snap it straight back into place when your ready to put it back on.

hell of a reply, thanks everyone, ill put up pictures of the before and after, hopefully i can figure it out

[iwork4mycb7]

probably the hardest thing your going to be doing is removing the clips..

[91cb7h22poss]

i heard the clips are a bitch, im gonna swap out my front bumper for a 92 93 bumper too, i think they look cleaner

What is the reason for changing your fenders? And thanks to drummersteve7 for the info. That is useful stuff. Is teh black lx sedan in the pic your car? Sharp car.

drummersteve, awesome, thank you, and the reason im swapping fenders is, im building a custom cold air intake, i hated all the aftermarket stuff so i figured i'd build my own, and my buddy gave me all his 3 inch intercooler piping, figured i would use it, and i wanted to take the fenders off to get a better look to the car, figured id swap them out while i had them off

[drunken monster]

What kind of fenders are you swapping to, or are yours damaged?

[91cb7h22poss]

i wanna do something fiberglass, possibly the z4 fenders, i like the look of them, simple, not positive but thats the direction

[drunken monster]

Nice, the Z4's should look good.

[91cb7h22poss]

yeahh i hope so
