There are 9 screws holding the front bumper on :

2 * 8mm at the top of the bumper , open the bonnet to see them.

3 *8mm under the bumper

1 * 8mm at each corner of the bumper (underneath - meaning five in total underneath )

1 * 10mm under each arch , where you open a flap to get to it . This "screw" is actually a plastic nut and really hard to put back on !!

This pic shows roughly where the screws are :







The bumper should now be very loose .

Pull both the right and left arch trims gently away from the bumper , and remove the screws if you need to .

Now give the bumper a pull away from the car , and put quite a bit of force over the towing eye area of the bumper , so that it pops over it .
