How to remove the front bumper

- lift up and fix the hood.

- pull out two clips and remove the hood lock cover (two clips are hidden under the cover).

- unscrew the four screws and pull out the six clips (twisted and inserted from top to bottom) that secure the top panel of the radiator grille.

- on the bottom side, unscrew ten screws and pull out two clips (twisted and inserted from the bottom up), which attach the mudguard of the radiator support and the fenders to the lower part of the bumper.

- bend the mudguard of the radiator support down (it is not necessary to remove it) and pull out two clips (inserted from the bottom up).

- turn the steering wheel to the side.

- in the wheel arches, we pull out two clips on each side that attach the wheel arch extensions and two clips that attach the fenders (front part).

- we release the wheel arch extensions from the bumper (they are held on internal clips, we pull them up from the bottom).

- we pull the wheel arch extensions towards ourselves and unscrew one screw on each side, which fasten the corners to the brackets in the wings.

- we release the latches in the wings (you need to pull the corners of the bumper towards you).

- release the retainers in the front part (marked in the picture with a red circle, you need to pull the lower part of the radiator grille towards you).

- remove the bumper forward (pay attention to the wires and hoses).
