strip off the bumper, then inner arches, and brake duct guides.
strip out the fogs and ducts from the front and the headlight grills. I cant rememeber ecactly where all the bolts are but there arent many and once you start undoing some other will become apparent job can take a short while but do it properly otherwise things will break

also remove the brakcets at the side which hold the ends of the bumper up.
Bollocks to this 24v scrap!

Remember the loom that runs across the front of the rad - unclip from holes in shown in photo - hidden behind bumper:

Also bolts/screws under outside headlamps (see above - wing goes over valence at this point)

and a couple of the front upper wing bolts to allow mild bendage.
