Hi
I want (need) to remove the bumper but can't find the fixings, anybody help?

2 allen key bolts (upright fixing) roughly by the indicators get at them by removing the lower grills.

As Steveb said,
2 M8 allen bolts 6mm allen key bit, a little hard to find, ends of bumper slid into slid rails fixed to front part of off side and near side front wings, the fog lights and indicators wires have to be detached after you have removed the bumper, two pairs of hands are better than one pair.

Cheers Steve, Colin
I got the electrics dis-connected but couldn't find the fixings.
I've had the rear bumper off. That was relatively easy

Thanks to your both for the info, bumper now off, just removed the headlight brackets (surface rust), this weekend is a painting weekend
