    My hood hinges got bent back in a minor accident and need to be replaced. Anyone have the procedure or video on that? Looks like you have to remove the fender completely and I'm having trouble removing the side bumper mounting bracket to get to the front fender bolts...the center clip doesnt want to release. Also, once I get all the bolts out, does the fender just slide forward to release under the vent window or does the window have to be removed? Thanks!

    I see you never got an answer. I'm in the same boat. Wish I could find some how to video
