Here it is, right out of the box. The screws for the fog lights and their seals are already installed and waiting. The only downside to the preinstalled hardware was the fact that half of them were bent. So we grabbed a pair of pliers and bent them back straight the best we could.

Now to remove the factory bumper. Our 1st step was to remove the small plastic cover located underneath the bumper itself..

That piece was held in with a few of these screw type clips. The easiest way to get them out is to slide a screwdriver into the top and push the plastic screw out a little. Once it looks like the picture, you can use a pair of pliers to pull the screw the rest of the way out. By doing this you will expose the blocker beam and have easier access to the 8 bolts that hold the front bumper to the frame.

Here are the eight bolts and four spacers that you should remove from the bumper, they are located on either side of the frame horn. Now with those gone, unplug your fog lights (if equipped). Once you have those bolts gone and the fog lights unplugged, the bumper will slider forward and off with very little effort.

With the bumper off the Jeep and laying it face down on the ground, remove the eight bolts holding the fog lights. Also keep in mind that the plugs are facing the driver's side.

As you can see we have straightened the fog light bolts enough to get them to line up. The fog lights themselves have to be installed this way with the seal already on the bumper. We used a small screw driver and a small amount of force to assist the fog light into the seal. Once it is in there, thread the nut up to the front of the fog and us the nylock nut to sandwich it in place.

Olympic supplies some carriage bolts to install the bumper. These bolts provide the front bumper with a better visual appeal. So we held the bumper in place and got on bolt and nut started on each side. This supported the bumper enough to allow us to get the rest installed and tightened.

Now since everything is secure and tightened, plug up the fog lights. As you can see we decided to leave the top plastic panel on for now. If you would installing a winch with it, then of course you'd have to remove it as well. That's all there is to it, now head out and enjoy the trails.
