can anyone please explain how to remove the front bumper of a 1987 rx7? i need to replace it cause of a crack.

thanks

You gotta find all the little bolts around it. There are a few on the top. Then you need to either remove enough bolts of the inner fender, or take it off completly because there are a few bolts under there. You need to take out the brake ducts also I think. I cant remember because last time I took my bumper off was to put a FMIC on, so I didnt need the ducts. There are a few in the middle that are bolted to the support.



Make sure you remember to disconnect the turn signals before you try taking the bumper off.



When its all loose, pull it straight out and off. Sometimes, the bolts that are connected to the fenders will be rusted a little or the threads will get caught on the fenders, you can just wiggle the bumper a round a little bit and it should come right off.

aite thanks for the help i will try it tonight

bolts along the top



bolts you can reach through the fender well liner, 3 of them actually, some of those might break, turn the wheel and ram your hand in there or use a long extension



bolts/clips along the bottom



remove the turn signals or you can just unplug them when you pull the bumper off

Brake ducts will need to be removed to get to the side bolts. It's not too hard.



- Hand

All but 2 of mine broke when I did it a few years ago.

new mounting strips are like $15 each if you end up breaking the studs



I never removed any brake ducts, guess all the cars didnt have them

From where, Mazda?

yes

$15 is a good price from mazda
