glad to hear you've sorted it mate

I think there's one bolt holding it on, it should be on the end of a bracket that's about half way along the pipe at the top

its easy enough to take off just a couple of bolts if i remember, i had to trim most of my bumper away which i did with an angle grinder, but i suppose it all depends on how thick your cooler is

sorry didnt catch the replys, i had wassers its the one from ebay 2fast2cool2 its good quality just one pipe was slightly to short other than that its fine. because i have the climate pack i had to fit it in front of the air con rad and to be brutaly honest iv made a bit of a mess of the bumper looks mean as fook though but not very pretty. i htink im going to have to find a r32 bumper. ill get pics up tonight. cheers scott  :tongue:
