The bumper cover is attached to the bumper support. You need to remove the bumper support with the cover attached and then you can properly attach the cover to the support and re-install. Check the on-line FSM for more details.:thumbsup:
Need Help with Front Bumper Cover Installation
Hi All,
I've come to this forum for lots of answers in the past for my '92 Acura Legend. It's such a reliable car. I've recently purchased a new front bumper cover and painted it myself. The previous owner did a screw job installing the current bumper. I've looked through threads to get more info on the types of bolts, screws, or whatever else might be necessary to install the bumper correctly but I've only found info on removing the bumper entirely. Does anyone have specific details on bumper cover installation? Just the cover, not the entire bumper. I need to know what type of clips, bolts, fasteners it needs and how many/where they go.
Thanks in advance for your help.

OEM Manual
I have the oem manual. I don't know if it's just me not seeing what I'm looking for but there's an area with mounts that holds the bumper cover to the bumper on the top where it meets the hood that requires some bolts and possibly some clips. The previous owner used about 5 different types of screws in that area to hold on the old bumper. I'm trying to install the new bumper correctly. I'm going to put the splash shield over the lower bumper flap to avoid it coming loose on parking blocks and have the instructions on that as well as front bumper removal, but I don't see that top area and what bolts/clips I would need. Any specifics you could share with me?

I would post pictures of the manual and my car but I haven't written enough posts to add URLS/pictures :/
