- Starting from the wheel wells, carefully pull the fascia away from the vehicle, working toward the middle. Use plastic trim tools to release clips as needed.
- Caution: Be extra careful around the taillight area. Masking the bottom of the taillight is recommended to avoid scratches. Unplug electrical connectors behind the fascia and set it aside.
