    I looked around for threads of this, but they didn't have what I am looking for. I know I must have seen this here somewhere, because I know there are about 10 clips around the front fascia.

    Anyway, I need to remove it to repair the lower lip, I think. It would probably be easier to work on it off the car. I will need to get in and replace or repair the lower front plastic pan as well.

    The reason I need to do this is to increase my resale value for when I trade in on the 2012 Prius v (5, ATP, I am thinking clear sky blue?), otherwise I would just get a shop manual.

    Click on the headlight link in my Signature. I document how to remove the bumper cover. Picture by picture.

    Oops, just realized I wandered into the Geniii forum. : p
