    What's the reason you're removing your bumper? I removed mine to gain better access to the intercooler for replacement.

    Awesome. Need to replace my front bumper. Now I can order a new one, and just have a shop paint it and save a lot of $$$ installing myself. Appreciate you bro.

    Hey man, is it possible to swap a 2015 optima bumper for a newer 4th gen bumper?

    • @blueglovemechanic
      @blueglovemechanic  2 месяца назад

      Hey there. Unfortunately I am unsure. Itd really be a matter of bolt placement, as well as if the body lines/clips line up. Also the dimensions might have changed overtime. I unfortunately do not have that info. Best of luck if you decide to try however! Let us know if you take on the project and how it goes. Thanks!

      @@blueglovemechanic you the man. I hit a giant raccoon going 60mph and hit my right side bumper and broke off the whole area where the fog light is. Cracked my wiper fluid reservoir, and drained it. Do you have any idea what to do at this point? Replace the whole bumper? Sheesh idk where to start

      @@ccccxxe31 Hey. Sorry i missed your last comment. I assume you figured something out by now but I guess it all depends on your situation. If the damage isnt too excessive they make bumper repair kits where you basically glue it back together from the inside. If it appears to be missing pieces or you want a much cleaner look i'd always recommend replacing any broken parts. Hope everything worked out for you!
