no need to remove that dome. leave it there.


lift the bumper....it's free. you've gotta do the free bumper mod. loosen the bumper bolts at the frame, adjust bumper, tighten bolts, done!

i thought you had lights behind the grille?

Stock emblems just heat them up with a hair dryer and pry them back with anything you want to use. I just painted right over using Krylon Fusion, just made sure it was clean.
