Do you want to replace the front bumper of a Mazda 6? Let's see how to proceed. Lift the bonnet and secure it. Using a plastic spatula or screwdriver, detach the rivets securing the bumper at the top as shown in the video.

Once this is done, unscrew the bolts of the lower splash guard using a socket wrench. Remove the rivets with the screwdriver located on the wheel splash guards and finally remove the bolts at the bottom of the bumper.

Pull the bumper away from the body of the vehicle. Now, remove the grille from the inside of the bumper and fit the new piece.

To proceed with the assembly, secure the bumper as shown in the video and tighten all screws and rivets around the splash guard and its perimeter.
