Exclamation Need help with a DIY project

need someone to make me a checklist type DIY tutorial, preferably with pictures and some simple steps

1. i've gotten my CF hood in and now am ready for install, i've NEVER installed anything myself before and want to do this one by myself..

main thing is i have no idea wat i'm doing.. and surprisingly i can't find any DIY for removing a stock hood! heard it's only 4 bolts or so, but my question was how to get the windshield fluid nozzles off?!?! and also how to install it onto the CF one, seems simple enough but i want a 2nd opinion to make sure what i came up with is correct.

2. my Radiator support was also damaged and i've bought a brand new one, and also can not find any DIY for changing that out.. some questions were do i need to take my front bumper off to change the support out? meaning is there any hidden bolts which can only be reached with the front bumper on the floor? and also while i'm here writing this i wanna make sure the upper tie bar (the middle one of the three) isn't welded on, is it?


i can't stress this enough!!! I WILL NEED PICTURES, remember, i am a noob at installs lol

Thanks in advance

I'm pretty sure the hood is just a straight replacement by removing a couple of bolts? As for the nozzles..there might just be a tab you gotta press in and push out...just guessing as for the fact that i havent had to mess with that kind of stuff lol, GL with the installs though!
