Removing front bar

[wombat]

Got my CF splitters today :-)

Having never taken off the front bumper, whats the easiest way to remove it so i can fit my splitters?

Cheers

might not have to remove it to fit them, just jack it up.

You need to remove the front bar or its a MASSIVE pain in the ass to put on :)

yeah found that out the hard way. its worse if you have a front mount cooler to.

edit: do yourself a favour and go buy a bunch of those stupid plastic push screw things. you will undoubtedly break some, ruin some, snap some trying to get them out etc.

Juat remove the whole thing, you'll thank yourself for doing it afterwards - just put it somewhere where it won't get scratched so you can easily work on it. +2 on the plastic clips, guaranteed to break some (I've used a few screws instead for easy removal in the future).

I dont bother with the under tray anymore haha


Yes I have many a broken clips lol

Thanks Macca and co for the info, figured that i'd have to take it off to get too the screws in the back of the lips.

So i take it I can just remove the bumper and the undertray will just come off with it?

Nah wombat. Pull the under tray off first, then the front bar. Dont forget the bolt behind the number plate.

You dont necessarily need to pull the under tray completely off but you may as well.

The under tray is partially bolted to the front bar and partially bolted to other bits (well platic screwed to them).

This could help also:

Its a how to for fitting a Forge FMIC on a EUDM Colt CZT... but for that you need to remove the front bar. ;)
