You've just answered your own question geese :wink: :D
Close enough, not quite an Allen key but a Torque bit :wink:

Once they're out the bumper just slide's off but remember the indacator's are still connected so be careful as you will need to disconnect these before the bumper will come off completely :wink:

You need a Torq socket, size is T55, if you have the M-tech front valence, this will also need to be removed.

Just realised, they are located on the under side of the bumper, not behind the number plate.
