Has anyone got any hints/tips/instructions on removing the front bumper from a my99 uk turbo?

Thanks in advance.

Ditto the above. I can see the time when a stone chip blitz would be on the cards!

There are 4 main bolts that hold the bumper on and about 8 smaller bolts.
The 4 main bolts are situated two either side of the engine bay.

If you look below the horn units under teh bonnet you will see two 19mm bolts, the other two are situated under the ABS unit on the left hand side of the engine bay just behind the headlight.

There are also smaller bolts in each of the wings, you will have to remove the arch liners to see them. They are 10mm, one bolts up in the corner where the bumper edge meets the wing and one inside the bumper.

There are also a couple of 10mm bolts under the front lip of the bumper which bolt upwards.

sorry about teh rough guide, am very tired..
