[scott_johnson]

Hey all, im sure this has been covered before but does any body have a step by step guide on how to take the front bumper off. Im wanting to clean my fmic and maybe remove the front lower middle grille!! cheers

in a nutshell:

Open bonnet, 4 rivets along the top, push through/screw into and pull out the centres, then lift them up with flat screwdriver and pull out

screw and clip at each side of the arch liner holding the sides into place, unscrew

Underneath screws connecting the undertray to bumper(2 i think, if you still have one)

pull the bumper off, dont be afraid to manhandle it a bit it can take a bit of abuse - same goes for when you're putting it back on

and watch for you foglight/washer jet connections.

I thought i had seen a guide floating about on here a while ago
