    Ah ha I disagree bro. Ditch that heavy rear bumper and hydraulic bracket mess. Job one on a fed bumper car. Both front and rear. That is the first thing you must do to call the Car a Z. And to call it your car.
    Those things are heavy, and hideous. NOW I KNOW YOUR REMOVING THEM, but to say, you don't know what your doing, if you take the bumpers off first ,is wrong.
    Just take them off, I prefer, as soon as I get it home, you like to remove the front,first, so be it.
    I don't know how I missed this video ,but saw your last video.
    I made my own hybrid wiring harness, and eliminated most of the horror. And I rerouted and hide wiring in the engine bay instead of on top of the frame rail. Ran it thru the box section that goes from door post to head light area.Comes out by the radiator. Good video. I use plastic zip lock bags and mark everything. And on other things I screw the hard ware back on it.

      I didn’t realize how heavy they were until I took them off.. and seeing the car with them off.. you are 100% right … those things are crap … I hope I can sell them

    can I take the drivers fender off of my monte without removing the bumper? I think I was doing a lot of the body work without the front bumber being off but it has been 11 years . and the rip off dude that tried to steal the monte mice got in to the headliner I had to rip it out...I am sure hoping they did not get in under my dash.

      your car looks to be very straight.. unless you are changing the color of your car the front bumper can stay on
