Front Bumper removal?? pain in the arse or Easy Peasey?

[Dansta]

Just wondered really... need some decent access to air feeds and want to take my acoustic valve out etc. and want to do something with the horn...

just a few bolts? accessable easily enough?

2 x bolts holding under tray
2 x bolts in wing/bumper section by wheel arch
2 x top clips on front grill
1 x fog lamp wiring connector block

Quite logical.
Altho watch out for when u take bumper off from wing, it tends to fling back and hit the paintwork.

Get someone to help you.

Also make sure car is jacked up and level. Makes it easir to work with. No need to remove wheels.

Is it not a good idea to disconnect the battery too just in case you knock it or drop it and set the air bags off!!

will take a b it longer than 2 minutes!

hardest part is pulling it free from the "clips" on the wings. you have to pull harder than you think you want to!!
