Video tutorial

In this video, you will witness the replacement of the front bumper on a Toyota Prius. The tutorial begins with the replacement of the front headlamp bulb, which requires the headlamp to be removed.

The headlamp is then repositioned and secured with three fixing bolts. The same operation is performed on the other headlamp.

The following images show the detachment of the clips securing the bumper and the subsequent fitting of a new one: at this stage, it is important to ensure that the holes for securing the bumper align with the clips and screws. The lower bumper is then fitted, secured with screws, and the plastic cover is attached by engaging the white clips and screws that hold it in place.

The video then focuses on the upper part of the bumper, which must be secured by attaching the bumper clips to the car body. All clips must be engaged: both those on the outside of the headlamps and those underneath them.

The bumper is further secured with a screw (per side) that connects it to the bodywork. Finally, the plastic cover inside the engine compartment is positioned and secured with some clips.
