Let's see how to remove the front bumper of a Volkswagen Golf IV: using a T20 torx key, remove the screws inside the fender, from both sides. Then, with the help of a screwdriver, pry off the side grilles at the bottom of the bumper to remove them: underneath we will find T30 torx screws to unscrew.

Now remove the bolts at the top, which are T8, and then gently pull the grille upwards. Underneath we find more T30 screws to remove.

Now we need to remove the headlight washer inserted in the bumper, very carefully because it is very difficult to find them in the same color as the bumper, so do the job delicately. Once this is done, we just need to pull the bumper outwards from both sides to remove the last fastening clips.
