Removing the Grille and Bumper on Volkswagen Polo

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 5, Polo V, MK 5, MK V, 6R - Years 2009-2017
Part: Front bumper

Obtain a plastic wedge and remove the two side areas of the front bumper grille by prising in the gap. This operation is clearly shown in the video. Once done, you can access the central part of the grille and unclip it from all four sides. If you want to remove the bumper itself, you must undo the bolts and clips located underneath the vehicle (lift it with a jack and secure it on axle stands), above the bumper (near the engine bay), and in the two wheel arches. Proceed in reverse for reassembly. Cheers!
