Open and lift the bonnet to unscrew the two bolts located on the top and inside of the black grille. This will allow you to remove it comfortably.

Now, remove the small bolts securing the bumper to the inner wing. Once the black grille is removed, you will see clips securing the bumper; by releasing them, you can now pull off the entire bumper.

Be careful to pull firmly but ensure all connectors are disconnected before moving it away. Now, carry out the necessary repairs and retrace the steps for reassembly.
