Bumper Valance / Air Dam replace

[munster05]

Hi,

Just got a 2014 Ram 1500 quad cab SLT with the Bighorn package. Has the chrome front bumper. I pulled forward in a parking spot and the black plastic valance or air dam as it is called scraped against snow with hard ice on top an upon backing out cracked it. To large to repair, so I bought a new one online. Does anyone have instructions on how to remove this piece?

Thank you in advance for your help

Its not too bad. There is a bolt on each end that comes from the top down. It is a 10mm head I believe. Then there are about 10-15 black plastic expansion rivets. I believe those are all removed from the bottom but there may be some from the top as well. Remove the center of the rivet with a pick tool or small screwdriver then a pliers. They only go back in one way. Try not to break any. The dealer wants 5-7 dollars each for them.

I just replaced my bumper on my big horn with a sport bumper. Here is a picture. You can see all of the plastic fasteners if you zoom in. As mentioned, there are also two bolts on the outer edges.
