Title: Front and rear bumper inserts
Post by: Gozza on 16 January 2010, 23:03

Tried searching for all sorts of keyworks so no nastyness if already posted please  :tongue: :wink:

Do the insert type bits in the front and rear bumper come out ? As is the bits that are there to take the scrapes, damn hard to explain erm. Ah fook it piccy time.

Just wondered whether you was going the smooth route.

all i did was very carefully used a thin bladed screwdriver and cloth so as not to mark the paint and eased the corner out enough to get a hold and then just uclipped it a section at a time until it all popped out
