As is often the case, removing the car's bumper takes time but is relatively straightforward. To do this, you need to unscrew all the bolts securing it from above, both on the sides and in the centre, and do the same underneath (lift the car if you struggle to get under the bumper).

Once done, to completely free the wing, you need to move the wheel arch liner and unscrew the hidden bolts behind it. Remove the wheel to gain more working space. Proceed in reverse order for reassembly, remembering all the screws shown in the video.
