Open and lift the hood. On the edge of the headlights, there is a lever to move in order to remove the small panels under both headlights.

Now, remove the clips that secure the inner fender above the wheel. If necessary, remove the wheel for easier access.

Next, remove the bolts that secure the front bumper to the fender and disconnect all connectors. Then, remove the bolts located behind the license plate on the front bumper.

Now, gently pull the bumper outward, and it will release from the clips. Next, replace the guides by removing the clips underneath them.

Install the new guides and reassemble everything by following the steps in reverse.
