1- get under the car, there are probably 3 screws left right and centre, unscrew those
2- where eth bumper meets the fender, and in the wheel arch, it is probably screwd with a nut or a cross head there on each side, undo those,
3- lift up the bonnet and there shuold be around 5 screws, probably cross heads

presto!

hope it helps,
off the top of my head too and according to what i think will be logical

You dont need to take out the panel filler, that was a mistake I made and it took way longer than it needed.

You need to look for 4 bolts, 2 on the left, 2 on the right.
Sit infront of your car and look/reach through the mouth part of the front bumper.
You will find them there.

They are the only 4 bolts you need to undo as it will allow you to remove the whole front bumper. Dont forget to remove the screws on the insides of the wheel arch :)

Best of luck :D

If it's anything like a EG, you have to take the splash guards off each wheel arch and it should be 10mm nuts. then 5 phillips heads between the headlights, and 3 10mm nuts under the bar.
