There are 4 bolts holding the bumper cover and headlight bar on to the fenders on each side, then there are a few random bolts you can see at the top. There are 2 bolts on each side holding the gfx to the fenders. Once you have the bumper cover and headlight bar off you will see how the gfx mounts to the bumper and then you will be able to easily swap that and the headlight bar to the new cover. Oh almost forgot, theres a bunch of plastic rivit type things holding the gfx to the bumper. Those are a pain to get out. I used wire cutters, but Im sure theres an easier way.
