you have to reach behind the bumper brackets, i got pissed and just cut the valance around them, then used a channel lock and broke the bolts.

I was ready to do the same thing until I found some flex head sockets to get in there. Took a minute but those are the only way your going to get those bolts off.

After my first post here, I went back out andmoved the fog lights out of the way, but Istill couldn't see ****. Also, my ram is sport, are they any different from the chrome bumper valances? It seems like it is molded to the bumper. Imgonnatake it off for now and put it back on after paint so I don't want to break or snip anything, I guess I'll have to look for flex bolts to "barrow" from autozone and try again.

yeah i guess i didnt think of that. I believe that the sport bumpers attatch differently, i actually think i saw a conversion kit on a website so you can bolt up a sport bumper to a non-sport truck now that i think of it.
