Introduction
This replacement consists of learning how to disassemble an Xbox One Wireless Controller and replace the Bumpers. This guide will be showing the replacement of the left bumper but the same steps can be applied to replace the right bumper. It is common for these bumpers to get damaged and lose usability quickly, especially if the controller is used frequently for gaming.

Is there a way to do this without removing all of the front and grip.
