I'm having my bumper resprayed on the 14th and need to remove it, what I'm looking for is pointers to the removal where bolts, screws etc are any help would be great

what model is it?

on my MY00 you need to take the grill off and the headlights out plus the wheel arch liners

There are 4 or 6 press clips on the top of the bumper 2 under each light you need to unscrew the centre plastic screw from each then you can pop the clips off, this is the same under the wheel arches holding the bumper to the wing, then there are 2 screws under where the fog light are roughly you need to take these out aswell, then the last screw is in the hole in the bumper which screws to the upright bar in front of the radiator. then it should come off.

if it is not any MY00 I have no idea how you do it.

Sorry MY93

 

Just behind the head lights you will see two bolts that go down into the support rails, there are then some clips on the arch liners, and I think there are some under the grille.

 

if you do a search for fmic fitting theres a thread there somwhere with step by step guide on bumper removal, i now you have got some bumper clips under the grill a screw behind the wheels and 2 big headed bolts underneath the car, i should remember realy only took mign off last week
