I have just bought super s bumpers:grinning: . Fitted rear bumper yesterday. Any tips for fitting front, looks more difficullt than the rear?

The front bumper is screwed into the wings from underneath and there are also two front bumper mounts located at the front.

Looking at the car, if i remember correctly the right hand one is easy to get to through the grille and under the car. The left hand one MAY require removing the headlight as I think the washer bottle gets in the way. Not certain on this just something to consider if it does get in the way.

It's quite easy to do and not really much harder than the rear, just takes a little longer.

you need to have the super s mounts tho or the bumpers will not fit

all i do is:

remove the headlights (10mm bolts)
undo the clips at the bottem of the bumper that go into the cross member
there 3 10mm bolts under each headlight, so 6 in total
and there 2 10mm boltsunder each side of the arch liner..

job done bumper is off only takes me 10minutes because ive done it like 6times..also my bumper is fitted with cable ties
