Rear Lower Valance

Don't know why you're being such a dick about this.MiamieNeSeX said:
So now are you saying you did remove the exhaust during this process? Is that what makes it accessible to be able to remove the valance w/o removing the bumper first? Seems to me it's a whole lot easier to remove the bumper to change it out than to remove the exhaust, but hey if it works for you, who am I to argue. However, if you were able to accomplish that when your exhaust was removed, it's somewhat misleading if you are giving general advice that that is a suitable method for typical install (especially when you didn't exactly mention that part of the process in the first place).
Or maybe you didn't remove the exhaust & you're just being sarcastic like all the other rhetoric that follows?

I removed the exhaust to replace it with another. As far as your dick comment, very classy.

Removing the Lower Valance
I know this is a blast from the past but I am having trouble removing my rear bumper. I have the 02 valance and I have removed the two bolts in the trunk (after removing my audio system in the trunk which took an hour) but now I am lost. I have the page printed for removing the rear bumper but I do not know what to do next. I think I can read pretty well but I only see pictures.
Can someone help
thanks

If memory serves I think that there are four nuts in the trunk.

I bet you that is what it is. I only removed two because there is one more piece in my truck for the audio system that is glued in. I bet I have to un-do that too.
thanks armando!
thanks armando!

Re: Removing the Lower Valance
There are only two nuts in the trunk. There are four more (two on each side) BELOW and in line where the two inside nuts are, but are located behind the bumper. You have to be under the car looking at the back of the bumper to find them. Then, there are four MORE (again, two on each side) behind the fender well plastic. Again, you must be under the car and looking at the back side of the bumper to find them. The last two are difficult to see, but a flashlight and/or reaching up in the area will help locate them.
Once you get all these removed, you have to tug and pull to get the assembly to come off. Then comes the fun of remove all the fasteners that hold the valence to the upper part of the bumper.
Finally, it would be best if you have someone helping line things up to place the entire assembly back onto the car as it is difficult for one person to do.
