right ive finally got my bumper sprayed up,

so i was trying to fit it, i unscrewed the two on the top, two under the arches and the 3 underneath, but when it was time to come off it wouldnt, anyway i asked some of the people who sprayed my stuff before how it comes off and they said i will need to take off the wheels then the black wheel things before it can come off, is this the usal thing??? as i think they broke my clips and have tigersealed something!!!
also the wiring looks a bit wierd, theres no english writing atall and its pics arent v good either!! anyon who has fitted one could they tell me a bit of info!!

I've never had to take the inner arches out.
The ones under the little flap inside the arch, lift the flap undo the bolt, and the bolt is attached to the arch, lift the arch away from the bumper and it will pull out!

inner arches dont have to be unclipped. you have to pull the sides of the bumper to release the clips on the wings, The toe hook will be kind of clipped onto it aswell so give it a little tug and it should come off.

give each side of the bumper a good yank (fr want of a better term) as there is small clips that hold it in, no need to take the inner arches out tho

hi mate i think there is 5 under neath also do u have the side brackets, ive just wired my air dam loom uptody mate hope this helps
on the main loom there is a load of brown wires this gose to the earth point to the left of your bake fulid holder
the red = power main battery
then u have 3 wires
a brown a black and green and a white and black
brown gose to number 1 on the swith holder with fuse 5amp
black and green gose to number 2
and white and black gose to number 5 - using the clamps ie same what holds a fuse in
then u have a green and gret wire just splice this in the side light wire witch is green and grey and use the crimp they provide
last part the brown at the end of the loom gose to earth of fog
and the other to the supply of the fog
i know this sounds confusing but it is really easy

nah this is the original, the reps are being changed so the brackets fit higher, mine look bent and thats what they took the copys from, but the real ones are really flexable so it is easy to move on mine!
