S14 Lower front lip removal? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

The lower lip of my front air dam is pretty scratched up from the previous owner, and I was wondering if anyone knew how to remove it so I can repaint it?  I do have factory foglights, so that's probably going to make it a bit more difficult.  If ya got any tips, they'll be much appreciated.  Thanks in advance! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

I thought the Lower 2" lip was an add on piece. if so, then as many other cars, there should just be about 6-10 screws to remove it. Jack the car up and investigate.

Im not sure about the s14 but on all the s13's it has been attached by about 12 or so 10mm nuts. Take a look under the car and find out, it should be ez to see. I will let you know if this is right when I get my s14 tuesday <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Thanks guys!  I made a stupid statement in my original post, though.  My foglights aren't in my lower lip, they're in the upper part of the air dam.  Oops:shocked::shocked:

I look at my car all the time and I can't believe that I said they're in the lower lip!  DUH!!!!

Once again, thanks!
