Hi, does anyone know if there has been a factsheet or previous thread on removing the front and rear bumpers. I want to remove mine to finish off the waxoyling, but dont know the easiest way to do it.

Pretty easy to do - had to take the back bumper off to fit a towbar. Only a few screws - just have a look at it - trial and error... :D
