well i thought as ive been busy spraying stuff id take off my front bumper rub strip that some penis in a car park scraped luckily only taking a 5 inch strip of paint off the strip. First i tried taking the strip off without removing the bumper not a chance! So i thought id just take the bumper off it was easy when i did the fogs. so anyway i remove the bolts then i come to the bolt in the wheel arch and im turning the bolt for ages then i realise the plastic whatsit the bolt screws into is just spinning :0s. Any idea how to get the bloody thing out?

Remove the arch liner and grip the square nylon nut with a pair of pliers or a set of molegrips, and just unscrew the bolt, failing that lever a screwdriver between the bottom of the nylon nut and the bolt, and unscrew as normal.

as here too as said above pair of molegrips on top and undo the bolt

think i didnt take the liner off but did have to undo some extra liner screws to get in there (small hands)

i needed a new one too

ordered a new pair today along with some new clips cuz im sure 1 of them was dodgy last time it came off. Havent bothered battling with it again yet as i ran out of paint sraying my plug cover so gonna get some more mixed in the morn in the. Is it just the 3 letter mg code i need to give them for the propper colour?
