Removing the Front Bumper on Skoda Octavia

Model: Skoda Octavia MK 3, 5E - Years 2012-2019
Part: Front bumper

Lift the bonnet and secure it. Unscrew the bolts that are now accessible and secure the bumper from above, as shown in the video, then do the same with the bolts underneath (there are a couple in the wheel arches, so move them just enough to access those bolts). By following the procedure clearly shown in the video and unscrewing all the numerous fixing elements present, you will be able to remove the bumper from its position. This operation is quite lengthy but not difficult. For the installation of the new bumper, simply reverse the procedure.
