OK ----Take out the small bolts on the bottom front that hold the plastic cover in place--Next pull out or pull back the plastic inner wheel wells, There are snap clips and a couple screws. Then there are 2 screws that attach the bumper to the fender to the left of the left headlite and Right to the right--Then take out the snap clips under the hood to the front,, 6 I think----Then there are 2 screws on each side under neith by the head lites. I do it so often I dont think about it --But thats basically it

Or just do a partial ----U can slide ur hand up there and replace the reflectors if u dont mind a little blood---My prefered method----

Always good to go down to Nissan and pick up a couple dozen each snap clips for top and inner fender well---Ull mess some up eventually
