Removing the Bumper on a New Beetle

Model: Volkswagen New Beetle MK 2, 9C - Years 1999-2012
Part: Front bumper

Is the front bumper of your New Beetle broken? Do you want to replace it? Start by lifting the front bonnet, then unscrew the retaining screws located at the top of the bumper. Once the screws are removed, take off the front lights by unscrewing the screws inside the right and left wheel arch liners (lift the car on a column lift). After removing all the screws, detach the bumper from all its parts. Disconnect the connectors of the indicator lights. Fit the new bumper starting from where you finished, connecting the electrical connectors.
