Question
is it possible for one with no real knowledge of cars to replace the front bumper cover (cover only) by himself of a 2001 grand prix.

Answer
It's possible, but you will still have to have the replacement cover painted. It's only about a 75 dollar job to have it professionally installed- the real money will be in the price of the part, and the cost to refinish it. I would have it professionally done when you have th enew cover painted. Bill
