well ive got some bad news, looks like the damage is coming from the inside of the head light, so this means ill have to remove the bumper to install a new one or try to fix my current one by getting on the inside of the lens. Are there any DIY out for removing the bumper?

you will need a 10mm socket , flat head and phillips screw driver. There are some pop clips on the bottom of the bumper and a phillips screw on each side where it meets the fender. Then you will need to remove the 10mm bolts from the inside of the headlight under the hood and the 10mm on the bottom of the bumper.

wow, im blind. i just now noticed you guys replied. thank you all for the help already, sorry for being so neglect full. i do have a garage, i could put the car in tonight and it miiiiight be ok for tomorrow but most of you guys are probably busy seeing how its a holiday. i dont however have 2 jackstand or a real jack for that matter. does anyone have any experience with baking the headlight to remove the lens? i dont know how confident i am in my own skills to do it alone.
