How to disassemble the front bumper on the Mazda 3?

Model: Mazda 3 MK 2, BL - Years 2009-2013
Part: Front bumper

In this tutorial, we can see how to remove the front bumper on the Mazda 3, an extremely simple and quick operation. First, we open the hood, then we unscrew the screws on the upper edge of the bumper using a cross-tip screwdriver. Next, we unscrew the screws on the inner front side of both wheel arches, then continue by unscrewing the screws on the lower edge and, grabbing it from one of the ends, separate the bumper from the frame. Finally, disconnect the connectors of the fog lights, if present, and install any replacement following the reverse procedure.
