Front bumper mk1

[M17TT180]

Is there a guide on here for removing the front bumper as I bought andys clear front lights and want to get them fitted asap.

It comes off quite easy. Its in the haynes manual. Few self tapers, and it slides off...........

unfortunatly i dont have a haynes.

4 plastic screws on the top,3 bolts 10mm underneath,and 2 10mm bolts in the wheelarches,comes off good mate

That sounds easy. Your lights (and your exhaust soon) will be put to good use!

Just like Andy says mate it is pretty straightforward but get plenty of wd into the bolts as they can shear off easily as me and Blair found out today.

How much different will the sound be as its a stock system just fitting your backbox

it was the same on mine mate,nice wee purr when its running,never really had the chance to hear it when doing a bit!

Good, don't want anything too over the top, did that on my fiesta. Its more for the look because at the mo the standard exhaust sits just inside the bumper so you can't really see it and looks kind of silly with the big cut out in the bumper.
