Thanks guys, appreciate your help

Will have a good luck this weekend, in order to carry out the necessary repair will I have to remove the bumper?

yes you will have to remove the bumper.

Unclip the indicators and fogs if you have them.

There are 2 17mm bolts that hold the bumper on.
Look under/up the front of the car, you you will see one bolt on either side.

Once these bolts are off the bumper should pull out nice and easy

Thanks Blue, will try it this weekend.

one thing the front bumper screws form part of the cross brace that supports the engine if you remove them then your engine is essentially only supported by 2 small bolts on either end of the lower crossmember. so support your engine underneath with a bottle jack and a piece of wood. if you got factory fit bumpers there will prob be some small screws holding the palstics on down the bottom of each wing, undo these as well!

Ah, that's good to know, could have had a bit of a disaster on my hands.  Thanks Veedub.
