Bumper adjustment help
I figured it out. Not really that bad to do. There isn't much room for adjustment up and down, yet side to side you can get about 3/4". I needed to raise my pasenger side by about 3/16", and got that much without too much fuss. The only tools you'll need is a flathead screwdriver, and a 12mm socket and ratchet with a 6"+ extension. Remove the grill by popping out the 4 pushpin retainers at the top. Then reach behind the grill and squeeze the 4 tabs at the bottom of the grill. There is also 4 little fasteners through the front of the grill in the corners, they look like square screws. Twist them as if you were loosening them 1/4 turn and give the grill a few light tugs. Should come right off. Look down in the lower corners where the grill was and you'll see 2 bolts on each side that hold the top of the bumper in. Too raise the bumper, slide however much height you need in body washers under the bumper tabs and retighten bolts. The bumper is not heavy at all, but be prepared to bleed a little in the cramped spaces. Check for adjustment and lvelness, then reassemble. Took me about 20 minutes to do with remeasuring everything for a near perfect fit.
