ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    Bumper help

    ok before you tell me to search the forums, I have already done that and spent hrs looking through threads relating to bumpers but none can answer my question.

    when you have your bumper off your car, there are plastic screws (i'm guessing their screws) all along the top of the bumper, i would like to pull these off so I can separate the bumper into 2 pieces, how the hell do i get these little bastards out ??

          I would take pics but I don't have a camera.

            There you go. I went down to NAPA and picked up a box of 25, which is more than enough for the front bumper (I think you need 9, don't remember ) Anyway, the NAPA's description on the receipt is

            RETAINER BK 665-2369

            For me it was a small red box and it cost 13.49 plus tax.

            Sorry for the huge pic, just wanted to let you see what's on the box so you know what to get.



            Hope that helps, and good luck with the bumper
