ive been trying to get my front bumper off for ages. ive got every screw out except the ones that are under the arches. i have got the arches off fine but cant get the last clip pout for the bumper. i dont really want to snap it as i dont really want to bodge it back on.
apparently theres a flap that locates the clip
anyone tell me where it is. or how to get to it
also any one know if there is clips holding the door strips on. i dont want to pull them off and have holes there. 99 corsa b i have

If you take your wheel off Keiran you'll see the small flap! prize it out with a flat bladed screw driver
and the plastic nut is behind it, if you've already got the arch off! there's a steel square you need to hold
in pliers to get it off.
As for the door strips, there's no holes as there glued on, but check to see if the doors been sprayed
before, cos if it has you'll need to have the hole door done.

Jack the car up a little and pop the flap open just inside the wheel arch opposite the end of the arch, then you should feel the nut and be able to undo it

take one cloth, out white spirit on it, soaked it and just put it on the sticker and hold it for 10-15 seconds so u gonna soak the glue .. but careful what cloth u use, use a microfibre ones , otherwise u can scratch the lacquer ...

Hair dryer or heat gun is better and easier to take the glue off mate

Once you have most of it off then put some spirit on a microfiber and rub off the remaining residue
