Guide - Removing Front Bumper

[Ambrosio]

Hi there.

I'm 306brasil.com.br moderator, and think fair debut here collaborating with somehow (i hope)

What you need:

- Torx (T15 or T20)
- 10mm wrench
- Philips screwdriver

Remove the front wheels helps the service

First, remove these 3 screw with the Torx in both sides



After remove, this part is out



This will give access to the upper screws bumpers

After this, remove these 3 screws in the sump guard with 10mm wrench



Finishing this, you have the lower part job finished.
Now starts the boring part.... The upper nuts.

2 nuts in the left side (Passenger side in the UK cars) - 10mm wrench



And 2 more in the right side (Driver side in the UK cars) - 10mm wrench
Ignore the black nuts (whitout prejudice :p), what matter are the silver nuts.



Finishing this, the bumper is out!
The "X" tags are fit points and the "circle" tags are fixation points with the nuts/screws

In the car



And in the bumper



The "square" points are the fog lights fixation.


Regards, Ambrosio

Great guide mate, exactly what I needed. I read the haynes manual but their photos are crap and I couldn't find the upper nut fixings. Your photos show where everything is.
Nice one

Welcome to the club!

Did this exact job for the first time on my Ph2 yesterday and I'd say your guide is spot on.

It's also worth mentioning that the 4th photo down showing the left nuts also shows the bitron box / relay. It's the box like thing under the curved pipe. If your fault finding faulty twin fans its something to check or possibly replace.
It's also known as the air con ecu and not always made by bitron, mines made by G. Cartier. If you need to replace any of the fan relays I'd recommend the G. Cartier stuff over Bitron. Hope that helps someone.

do the fog lights need to be removed to gain access for the bumper nuts or are they accessable with the fogs still in place

[rocker8742]

You can do it with the fogs in place mate

[bigtone0777]

Helped me out, I've been out there for half an hour looking for those top nuts lol

Cheers!

i just did this yesterday, if you can see the 10mm one above the horn on the passenger side and move your hand up and towards the car, at the other side of the loom you can feel the other bolt.

the one on the drivers side is in the same place so once you've found one at one side you should know where to feel for the one at the other side.

Took me ages to figure out why the bumper wouldnt come off and then i felt the other nut!

haha i read that as you couldnt find where the bolts were.... my bad, sorry!

thanks for the guide

ive got to remove my bumper very soon, and do some repairs to it, as the previous owner decided to either bump into something, or have soemone bump into them

its severely cracked all along the top edge, and the bottom 3 supports are broken. plus the NS fog is smashed

time to crack out the fiberglass kits i think.

Nice guide. I got a bit inpatient when removing mine and did some damage so this will be a good reference in the future.
