Key words: Lada Priora bumper

On the Lada Priora, as on other cars, the bumper performs an important protective function - softening the impact of a collision, and since it is made of plastic, it is often damaged. This situation can happen both on city streets and on country highways. Therefore, you need to know how to remove the bumper on a Priora in such cases.

Tool

Dismantling a buffer in a garage does not require special knowledge or outside assistance. One person can successfully handle this job. In order to remove the front bumper on the Lada Priora, you need to prepare the following tools:

• a Phillips-head screwdriver;
• 10 mm ratchet wrench.

They will be needed to dismantle the fasteners holding the part to the car body. A screwdriver will be used to unscrew the screws, and a wrench will be used to unscrew the engine protection bolts. For ease of work, you will need to install the car on an inspection hole or overpass. If there are no such structures nearby, then you can raise the front of the car using a jack and securely secure it in this position.

Purpose of a car bumper

The front bumper, like the rear bumper in the Lada Kalina car, serves to protect body components and assemblies of various systems from external mechanical influence, for example, during an accident. The device is not a protective element for the driver or his companions, because airbags and other power components of the body are used for this. The body element is capable of absorbing part of the energy from a collision, thereby reducing the level of destructive impact exerted by inertia on the body components located behind it. This is true for high speeds. When driving at minimum speeds, the plastic element is able to completely absorb the impact energy of a collision, preventing destruction of the car body and systems.

Manufacturers in the vast majority of models use plastic as a material for this design. The device is secured using clips, screws, and self-tapping screws.

Let's return to the question, how to remove the bumper? The removal procedure itself should not be difficult if the owner is aware of all the attachment points of the product, since forgetting to unscrew a well-hidden fastening component during dismantling creates a risk of breaking a section of the plastic element or one of its brackets.

Some Lada Kalina owners are inclined to replace the bumper in order to install a tuning product. This is done for the sake of improving the appearance of the car, but we should not forget about the standards governing the size and location of mounting points in height. Next, we will tell you how to remove the bumper, as well as how to replace it.

Rear bumper

To carry out body work or replace damaged elements (reflectors, parking sensors), you need to remove the bumper on the Priora. This work is simple and differs from dismantling the front structure only in the number of fastening screws.

In some cases, difficulties arise when removing the side wings from the grooves, especially at low air temperatures. Doing these steps may cause the plastic to crack. The same problems arise on Kalina 2. Due to the unique shape of the buffer, it can be difficult to push it out. However, if you follow all the requirements of the vehicle’s operating instructions, dismantling can be carried out without difficulty.

How to remove the rear bumper from a Priora

For cars of different versions, the dismantling of the buffer differs only in the locations of the fasteners. For example, on a sedan the screws are screwed into the trunk frame vertically from top to bottom, while on a Priora station wagon - horizontally. Due to the shortened end part of the hatchback body, it is difficult to reach the structure fasteners in the arches.

For comfortable work, it is recommended to remove the rear wheels.

To remove the rear bumper on a Priora you must:

1. Unscrew the 2 fastening bolts on the trunk frame, and then the 2 nuts connecting it to the body at the bottom of the car.
2. The wings of the structure are held in place by 3 screws located in the wheel arches.
3. After dismantling the fasteners, the buffer is removed.
4. Inside it there is a structural reinforcement, which is fastened with self-tapping screws.
5. The reflectors are screwed on with one nut.

How to remove the front bumper part

The list of tools that will be needed for the process is as follows:

• crosshead screwdriver;
• 2 keys of 10 and 13 mm sizes (the 13 mm key must be a socket type).

First you need to unscrew the 3 screws that secure the front facing part of the car radiator. Then you can remove it, after first removing its two latches from their engagement with the brackets. They are located in the area of ​​the right wheel at the bottom of the car.

Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the 3 screws used to secure the front bumper liner. The other three screws located at the back must be unscrewed in the same way. Next, use a 10 mm screwdriver to unscrew 3 self-tapping screws, which are used to secure the structure to the car body.

Then you need to take the Phillips screwdriver again and use it to unscrew the 2 remaining screws securing the grille to the bumper. After performing these manipulations, you can safely remove the front grille of the Kalina without damaging it.

Next, you need to arm yourself with a Phillips screwdriver and use it to unscrew the 2 screws securing the structure to the beam. The two bolts on the edge can be unscrewed using a 10mm wrench, and the middle pair of bolts in the top fastener can be unscrewed using a Phillips screwdriver.

After some effort, you can remove the flange on the side of the bumper, which is attached to a bracket in the body. The same sequence of actions is used to remove the flange on the other side of the car. After this, you should remove the front bumper of the car.

Also, to complete the dismantling process, you will need to remove the energy absorption beam, which is attached to the body with four bolts. They can be unscrewed using a 13mm screwdriver. After this, the beam can be easily removed.

To install the removed structure, you need to perform exactly the same steps, but in a different sequence. During installation, it must be taken into account that the gaps between the element and the body parts must be uniform. After you secure the element to the surface of the body, you will need to press its side parts to the brackets. This will allow you to fix the flanges on the body brackets.

How to replace the front bumper on a VAZ 1117-VAZ 1119?

Note! When you go to the auto store, think about what else you need to buy for the new bumper, for example, as we already said, there is a beam under the bumper, it can be different depending on your car (That is, it can be plastic or metal, it will be metal if you have a viburnum Sport or a new model Kalina), and also if your bumper is equipped with fog lights but the linings into which they are inserted broke upon impact, then you will need to stock up on new linings (These are the mounts where the fog lights are inserted)!

Removal: 1) To remove the bumper, you must first remove the radiator grille; to do this, use a screwdriver to unscrew the three top screws (see photo 1) and then lift the grille a little and disengage its brackets as shown in photo 2 below.

2) Let's move on, now if you have fender liners installed on your car, then unscrew three screws on both fender liners and exactly in those places where the fender liners are attached to the front bumper of the car (see photo 1), then move to the lower part and there on the sides unscrew the two screws securing the bottom trim (see photo 2) and then remove it from the car bumper (see photo 3), then unscrew two more bottom screws (see photo 4) but this time these screws secure the bumper itself to plastic beam that is located under it.

3) Well, finally, take a socket wrench (They are simply convenient to work with), or if you have socket heads and a wrench, you can use them, so using the wrench, unscrew the three lower bolts as shown in photo 1 and after that the two side upper bolts and unscrew the two side central screws (see photo 2) and then bend the bumper on the sides so that it disengages from the brackets (see photo 3), and accordingly remove the bumper from the car.

Installation: The new bumper is installed in its place in the same way as it was removed, but if you also want to replace the beam or brackets (For example, if these brackets on which the beam is installed are bent, then the bumper will no longer stand straight), then this is done very easy, the beam is secured by four bolts, two of which, by the way, you can already see in photo 1, these bolts secure the beam at the edges and if you unscrew them, you can remove it from the car, and when you remove it, you can also remove the brackets and replace them with new ones, They are also fastened with two bolts. For more details about the brackets, see photos 3 and 4.

Replacing the front bumper on Kalina

Welcome! The front bumper - it wears out over time (Rots), and is also deformed upon impact, and in general it takes on almost everything that flies from the cars in front, so the bumper is changed often, and if you also take into account the fact that the bumper is made of plastic, then in severe frosts the plastic hardens and thus, even with a slight impact, it deforms and cracks, but plastic bumpers have a number of advantages over metal bumpers, firstly, they soften the blow, especially this is very useful if you a person was hit at low speed (He practically won’t feel any pain), and secondly, their streamlining is better and at high speed the car holds the road better than with metal bumpers, which is why recently metal bumpers are used in few places on new cars. In fact, they are not needed; under the plastic there is a metal beam that will also withstand the blow in the event of a severe accident.

Note! To replace the bumper, you will need to stock up on: A 10-size wrench, as well as a screwdriver and a 13-size socket wrench!

Summary:

When should you replace your front bumper? You can replace it at your own discretion, but we will give you some advice on when it is best to replace it. Let’s start with the fact that recently there are quite a few people driving cars without front bumpers; on the road when traveling by train, this will greatly affect fuel consumption since the car’s aerodynamics deteriorate significantly, so keep this in mind, in addition, if the bumper is not badly damaged and you don’t have money for a new one yet, then you can drive like this, it will be ugly, but it doesn’t affect any characteristics at all.

How to choose a new bumper for Lada Kalina

As a rule, body kits for the VAZ 1118 are sold unpainted. It makes sense to buy such parts when several body elements of the car were crushed as a result of an accident, for example, a bumper with a fender and a hood. Then they will inevitably be repainted.

This is what the Booster series tuning bumper looks like

There are also painted parts on sale; the owner of Kalina can only choose the color according to the number in the catalog.

Note. To complement the standard body kits, instead of the usual black radiator grille, you can choose nice products of a different configuration with different coatings.

When purchasing new items, you should consider the following recommendations:

• carefully inspect the product for cracks (especially at fastening points) and chips in the paintwork;
• check the plastic from which the bumper is made - it must be elastic, hard products can quickly crack from the slightest impact;
• make sure that the tuning parts have openings for installing fog lights;
• compare with the old element - it’s great if there are additional stiffening ribs inside the body kit.

The prices of the products are quite affordable.

How to remove bumpers on Lada Kalina?

It doesn’t matter how much experience the driver of the Lada Kalina has, or what year his car was produced. Sooner or later he needs to replace or remove the bumper on the front or rear of the car.

Among the reasons for the need for replacement are:

• the desire of the car owner to tune the car, replacing an outdated part with a new one;
• damage to a structural element due to being involved in a traffic accident or other mechanical deformations;
• the need to install or dismantle fog or other headlights due to fogging or cracks on their surface;
• the need to dismantle engine elements or other structural parts.

You can remove a car element either to carry out repair work on its surface or to completely replace it. Even a beginner in this matter can cope with the work. This will save you:

• the time required to transport the car to the service center;
• money that would have to be paid to the master for the work.

The Lada Kalina bumper, like most similar structures on domestic and foreign cars, is made of plastic and attached to the surface of the body with special screws. The biggest difficulty in dismantling and replacing it is that some of the screws in the structure are disguised.

Missing even one screw will cause a break or crack in the cover. When working, you should adhere to strict rules, otherwise you risk damaging the fragile plastic structure completely, and it will not be subject to restoration. The dismantling process itself takes no more than 30 minutes, and when working with an assistant, the removal time is reduced.

Removing the front element

Let us remind you that the front bumper is dismantled not only for its own repairs, replacement with a tuning product, but also to replace some other components. For example, to replace the headlights you will also need to remove the structure we are considering.

If it is not possible to dismantle the front bumper yourself, we recommend contacting a competent service center; they will know exactly how to remove it. Most owners can easily remove the bumper themselves, spending little time.

Let's move on to describing the sequence of actions that allow you to quickly remove the product.

1. Initially, before dismantling, we de-energize the electrical network by removing the terminals from the battery terminals.
2. Under the hood we find three bolts. They fix the radiator grille. We carefully unscrew them, being careful not to damage the adjacent painted surfaces with the tool.
3. After removing the grille, we unscrew two bolts and a pair of screws that hold the frontal part of the bumper. Now unscrew the two fastening components of the lower grille and dismantle it.
4. Next, we “defeat” two bolts located under the bottom of the product.
5. We unscrew the three fasteners holding the bumper to the body and a pair of screws connecting the structure to the fender liners.
6. We move to the wheel arches, where we unscrew two screws on each side. For ease of operation, you can twist the steering wheel to the appropriate side.
7. We remove the product after prying it off.

The owners of Lada Kalina spend about an hour on the entire dismantling process. To do this, you should acquire the necessary tools in advance. We recommend grouping the entire list of fasteners so that when installing the product you do not confuse them or lose them. Next, replacement is carried out, and the installation algorithm itself is absolutely the opposite of the removal process.
