Removal and InstallationNBBT0004IWhen removing or installing hood, place a cloth or other padding on front fender panel and cowl top. This
prevents vehicle body from being scratched.
IBumper fascia is made of plastic. Do not use excessive force and be sure to keep oil away from it.
IHood adjustment: Adjust at hinge portion.
IHood lock adjustment: After adjusting, check hood lock control operation. Apply a coat of grease to hood
locks engaging mechanism.
IHood opener: Do not attempt to bend cable forcibly. Doing so increases effort required to unlock hood.
FRONT BUMPER ASSEMBLYNBBT0004S011. Remove screws and clips securing left and right sides of front fender protector.
2. Remove clips securing bumper fascia to radiator core support lower.
3. Remove clips securing radiator grille and remove the radiator grille.
4. Remove finisher and bolts securing left and right fog lamps and remove the lamps.
5. Remove bolts securing left and right radiator grille and remove the radiator grilles.
