If your's is the same as mine - facelift model (not sure if chromies are fitted the same or not) it's very easy!

Undo the two big allen bolts underneath and pull bumper forwards!

It's as simple as that! :D

Snapped a few torx heads on those - they get really corroded and seize up. Watch ot when it slides off - s'heavy.
