Default front valance help

dont know if im posting in the right spot but i just need some help.

due to mother nature my front valance broke i was curious to know how hard the are to get off. ( screws, or pop off). Also i have a push bar on would it be possible to replace it w/o taking the bar off or would it just be easier to take it off?

Thanks all help is apreciated.

it is a 99 zr2 by the way.

You'd probably have to take the push bar off, it would make it extremely easier & they're not difficult to remove, just 4 bolts I believe. For the lower valence, I'd bring it inside or take pictures of it to see how it's molded & go to www.rockauto.com. They have them at really good prices & many different configurations (hence the photos)

I just replaced the valance on my 2002 ZR2 and it's a piece of cake. You will have to remove the push bar, but after that it was just six push pins (two on each end and two near the center) and it pops off. Installing the new one was even easier. I forgot, I didn't have any flare extension on the truck at the time so there will be a nut to remove on each of those too.

i replaced mine when i got it becaue it was cracked, only took me about 1/2 hour to replace by myself on the ground, its only a couple of bolts and the rest are plastic clips. the only problem i had is that i broke the bolts that go to the flare extensions and had to drill them out and put new bolts in.
