I have a 98 gsx with a stupid body kit on it, I have finally pieced together all my 2gb part and am hoping to put them back on soon. I have a few questions though.

1) Does somebody have a list of all the clips and certain screws and all im gonna need to mount these back on like from factory.

2) Does anybody have any tips on the getting the rusty screws out of the rear bumper mounting bracket so i can re-use it to bolt the stock back on in this location.
 
Should be straight forward as far as the front bumper - I have taken it off numerous times (no special clips and so fourth). It depends if the previous owner did a hack job and removed things to accomadate the "2 fast 2 furious" bumpers.
 
The front bumper might be for ga. so you might need different headlights. GB and GA headlights are different size. The rear bumper should be fairly simple. And as far as rust screws, use pb blaster. Spray a few times over a few days. Thats what I do and works great. Help break up the bolts and get in there.
 
If I can remember right, it should be 11 10mm bolts that hold the front bumper (5 under the hood, 3 on the undersize of each fender) Easiest way to do it is to take one of the screws and go to Home Depot and find out the right thread pitch and get your new bolts that way. I forgot how many bolts hold the rear.

In terms of removing rusty bolts, invest in this stuff. It's better than WD-40 and PB Blast put together and I will swear up and down by it 1CAN -AERO KROIL PENETRATING SPRAY- KANO 13 OZ CAN - KING SIZE - JESCO SALES | eBay
