So my Radiator support is bent and i cant take it off to replace it. It seems like its glued on from the factory. So ive tried scraping it and it still would not come off . is there any easier way or some sort of solution to take it off? and thank you!

doesnt the whole front come off for that support? if its not too bent, get a slap hammer and straighten it out without taking everything apart.

I just bought a radiator support. That baby is welded on to the front. If it's bent because of an accident you'll never get it perfectly straight again. Just buy a one from a parts car at a salvage. They'll need to weld it off and you'll need to go to a body shop after.
I had the same dang issue on my BD when I bought it. Radiator support was f**ked!!
