fitting the RS grille

[LEOGWC]

Just getting round to fitting my RS grille today.

but before I start it will I need to remove my bumper or can I swap them over without bumper removal ??

You'll have to remove the bumper!! There's a guide in the guide section IIRC

I didn't remove the bumper. Took me less than 5 minutes.

Cheers guys, Didn't know if it would be worth trying to do it without removing bumper, but as some of you guys have done it without bumper removal I will give it a go

As said, it can be done without removing the bumper.

Once you've removed the two pins at the top of the grill, work your way along from the top corner and push the grill back towards the engine bay.
There are plastic tabs behind the grill which can be lifted to help remove, but i didn't really need to when doing mine, just a little tap from the front was all it took.

Mine was tricky to remove, Just bear with it and you will do it eventually, Definitely not a bumper off job!

You might end up swearing and with sore fingers after it, but try to keep calm
