hi guys Iv recently bought an s3 sportback rear valance and diffuser for my s-line sport back!
What's the method of removing the lower half of the bumper and replacing?

Cheers
 
Undo the screws from either end of the valance and then just press out the clips from behind, it is fairly flexible.
It's a little trickier in reverse but just make sure you line one end up first and work them all the way in as you go otherwise it'll appear short.
This is all assuming you already have the bumper off!
If not, take the bumper off!!!
 
Ah it's a bumper off job is it!
Was hoping I could do it on! Lol
 
Even if you could, its only a 20 min job to take off the bumper.
Remove bumper screws from both wheelarches
Remove both outer rear lights and then screws hidden behind
Remove the 2 main bumper nuts from inside the boot
Pull bumper out from rear wings
Job done!
 
Looks like a job for tomorrow then as got work soon! Lol
Cheers for clearing that up mate!
 
left mine on, arch liner will not fit after it and mines is 5mm out each side but looked at another and it was the same.
