Hi how hard/easy is it to strip the front end back to the rad support? ie, wings, front grill and lower valance I believe?..

Thank you for your time

Pull your front bumper. Pull your valance after unplugging lights. Pull your grill after unplugging lights and/or vacumn lines.  Pull your hood and then the fenders.  You and a friend can do it in about an hour or 2.   Bag and tag your bolts for easy reassembly.

the hood can stay on 2nd gens one bolt in each hinge has to come out
