Really it's just a matter of a number of screws.

The terrifying bit is when you get hold of each side of the bumper and give it a good tug.---

First time 25 minutes. The second time 15.---


Do Not try and remove the bib screws on the lower edge of the bumper, leave them well alone and undo the 4 under tray screws instead.




9 x cross head screws across the top of the slam panel.
2 x 10 mm screws in the leading edge of the wheel arch.
2 x self tappers on the return edge of the wheel arch liner.
4 x 1/4 turn fixings on the under tray.
6 x self tappers on the two triangular brake ducts.

A sharp tug on each side to unclip the bumper from the wing.

Then unplug the indicator - fog light loom on the nearside chassis leg.
Unclip the power wash hose (if fitted) on the off side.
