What's the reason you're removing your bumper? I removed mine to gain better access to the intercooler for replacement.
Can you post a video of how to replace the bottom valence for the car

Awesome. Need to replace my front bumper. Now I can order a new one, and just have a shop paint it and save a lot of $$$ installing myself. Appreciate you bro.

Hi what is the part under the front of the car called that you took off after the wheel well screws, at about the 6:30 time on video please. Thanks, mine has broken and need to replace but don’t know what it’s called

Sure beats labor costs to replace a low beam, thanks for the vid Blue Glove
Thanks for the kind comment!
Ugh, I guess I got to do it myself
I replaced both my low beams without removing anything. First bulb I bought, did not work, kia can be finicky with bulb brand and the 2 slots on light bulb fitting correctly.
@@rotwiler7674I need to replace my driver side low beam, so I'm gonna replace both. Which bulb did you use to replace yours with bro?
Hello, could you do a DIY for the back bumper removal?

Hey man, is it possible to swap a 2015 optima bumper for a newer 4th gen bumper?
Hey there. Unfortunately I am unsure. Itd really be a matter of bolt placement, as well as if the body lines/clips line up. Also the dimensions might have changed overtime. I unfortunately do not have that info. Best of luck if you decide to try however! Let us know if you take on the project and how it goes. Thanks!
really Appreciate this video bro, to think I’m doing this for a turn signal
Best of luck! Just be careful around those front clips and youll be set!
Same.. & did you have to take the entire front bumper off to do this?
I need to change my headlight ballast on the front passenger side: I assume I will need to remove the bumper as you did in this video…. Any tips?
Thank you so much!!

I have a 2014 Kia optima white with 48,000 miles in it. It’s 100% in great condition but my front grills kidding kind of faded need to change it out.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🙌🏼✌🏼
@@JoeAndMattsDetailing0 I hear yuh. Ive got around 120k now and my front bumper was replaced/repainted before i bought it. With cleaning off all the bugs i have little paint chips everywhere.
I just want to change the horn…..
Do you have a video of putting it back on? Would be so helpful
Hey there. If you start my video of how to replace an intercooler at 21:50 that should help you out. Thanks and dont forget to subscribe!
@@blueglovemechanic you the man. I hit a giant raccoon going 60mph and hit my right side bumper and broke off the whole area where the fog light is. Cracked my wiper fluid reservoir, and drained it. Do you have any idea what to do at this point? Replace the whole bumper? Sheesh idk where to start
@@ccccxxe31 Hey. Sorry i missed your last comment. I assume you figured something out by now but I guess it all depends on your situation. If the damage isnt too excessive they make bumper repair kits where you basically glue it back together from the inside. If it appears to be missing pieces or you want a much cleaner look i'd always recommend replacing any broken parts. Hope everything worked out for you!
