First we have to remove the grill.
Two torx and two clips

Two torx

The grill is now loose.
Now to the front bumper.
Two torx

Four torx

The bumper is now loose. Remember to loosen the wire to foglight and hose.

Remove one clip and the hose is loose.

End then your done!

You didn't take off your bumper just to make this DIY did you?
Tell me you had some other reason and you just thought this would be a helpful part of that process.
Please.

Re: (VWGeeTeeEye)

No, not just to make a DIY.
Had to put xenon in foglights...

If you meen glue by "paint", then yes.
If you meen pain by "pain on lights", then no.

Re: (OleH)

Has anyone seen a thread on the back bumper removal??

 

[ar_mike]

Re: (Spoiled87Coupe)

arent' there torx screws on the bottom of the bumper that needs to be removed after removing the 4 torx in each wheelwell?

 

[phx08]

Re: (ar_mike)

those are just for the skid plate attached to the bumper, no need to remove those as it just comes off with it.

 

[FusionGuy]

How did you attach your front plate? I don't see fasteners or anything. Thanks!

Re: (FusionGuy)

I assume this is almost the same as the rabbit. I will take pictures of my removal. I am installing FK Angel Eyes. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif
