pre facelift front bumper removal?

Off the top of my head...open the bonnet and look down and theres 4 / 6 screws along the top of the grille, 1 in either wheel arch and two underneath the bumper, about 18inches apart in the middle.
Good idea to pop some masking tape along the wing, very easy to scratch it as you slide the bumper on and off.

Piece of cake man.
1. Open the bonnet and remove all those round black plastic trim clips (be prepared for a few breakages - little bastards these things are) that line the top of the bumper and grill.
2. Get under the front arches and look for a crosshead screw towards the rear of where the bumper meets the body - undo this on both sides
3. Get under the front bumper and look for where the bumper meets the arch liners - there'll be a crosshead screw that is also a bolt head - Undo this on both sides
4. Now just grab the bumper and pull it away from the front of the car. You should feel a pop as it comes away.
Enjoy fitting your new intake!!
