Q: How to remove and install both the front and rear bumpers of a Lexus ES300,Toyota Solara and Toyota Avalon?
A: For front bumper removal, apply the parking brake, raise the vehicle, and securely support it on jackstands. Disconnect the negative battery cable, followed by the positive battery cable, and wait for two minutes before proceeding. On Avalon models, remove the headlights, parking lights, grille, and cover. For installation, reverse the removal process, ensuring that tabs on the bumper cover fit into corresponding body clips before attaching bolts and screws. An assistant's assistance is recommended at this point.For rear bumper removal, work beneath the vehicle to detach plastic clips and screws securing the lower edge of the bumper cover. Remove nuts securing the bumper cover in each corner of the trunk interior. Open the trunk lid and remove clips or pins securing the upper edge of the bumper cover. Pull the bumper cover away from the vehicle. Installation involves reversing the removal steps.
