How to replace the front bumper of the BMW 3 Series

Model: BMW Serie 3 F30, F31 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Front bumper

These short and simple instructions will guide us through the process of disassembling and replacing the front bumper of the BMW 3 Series. First, we open the car's hood and start unscrewing all the fixing screws we find on the top and bottom of the bumper; we remove the additional screws and clips located on both sides of the front wheel arches, as shown in the video. At this point, we gently release the bumper on the sides until it is completely removed, replacing it with the new one; we securely attach it to the bodywork using screws and clips.
