How to remove the front bumper of the Kia Picanto.

Model: Kia Picanto MK 3, JA - Years 2018-2026
Part: Front bumper

Let's see how to remove the front bumper of the Kia Picanto; we will only need a Phillips screwdriver. Let's lift the hood and find the two screws hidden inside the wheel arch, where the bumper meets the fender, and remove them. On the top of the bumper, under the edge of the hood, there are 4 plastic clips; we will also remove these (gently, to avoid breaking them). Now let's start unhooking the bumper from the sides, applying a slight outward pull. Once unhooked, we can slowly pull the bumper forward to detach it completely.
