    CAUTION:
    • Carefully remove the front bumper from the front bumper slider. If the front bumper is removed from the front bumper slider with excessive force, the front bumper hooks may be damaged because the front bumper and the front bumper slider are engaged firmly.
    • Detach the front bumper hooks from the front bumper slider using two people, one person supports the front bumper. If the front bumper hooks are detached from the front bumper without supporting the front bumper, it may fall off and be damaged.
