How to remove the front bumper of the Nissan Maxima.

Model: Nissan Maxima A36, MK 8 - Years 2015-2023
Part: Front bumper

Let's see how to remove the front bumper of a Nissan Maxima. We'll start by raising the front of the vehicle, and from underneath, we'll unscrew the first 4 cross screws we find at the corners and along the lower edge, then the 5 10mm screws located centrally under the bumper. We'll push the inner fender lining to access a 10mm screw in the corner area, then we'll unlock the pin that holds the bumper by pushing the tabs upward from the inside to release the pin. We shouldn't pull the bumper forcefully, as we risk breaking the pin. Now let's work from the top; we'll open the hood, remove the clips, and disconnect the electrical connections of the front headlights. Now we can remove the bumper.
