Removing the Front Bumper

Has anyone got any guides for removing this? Tried search but I just seem to get everythread appearing so I am probably doing it wrong.

Any help appreciated.

Also anything on removing the wings too Smile Used to have:

Now have:
2008 SSRR 3.6 TDV8 - HSE and plenty of toys

From memory:

Open bonnet, remove 3 screws from grille. Remove temp sensor from grille.

Remove headlights- 3 screws in each and un clip connector.

1 screw/bolt in the front of each wheel arch.

Remove tow hitch cover.

About 5 or 6 screws underneath front chin spoiler.

1 screw either side of the bar which crosses the lower grille.

3 or 4 screws underneath where the front grille was.

Jiggle it slide it off and unclip all the parking sensors and fog lamps.

Sorry- just out on my iPhone with no access to notes- sorry if I missed anything!

Are you seriously bitching that you'll have to undo 15 screws?

Would you like one of us to come round and do it for you? Rolling Eyes
