Ah really? All the v8s I've had the front ends off for headlight upgrades I've never noticed that. Thinking about it I think I remember the washer bottle neck being in the way of the access panel in the wheel arch.

If you're going through the headache of taking the bumper off personally I would swap the headlights out for some factory xenons, as the factory d2s burners last a lot longer than halogen bulbs about 95% of the xenons i work on still have the factory burners fitted to them.
