Hi Guys.

I'm looking at removing my front bumper and back bumpers soon to get them sprayed in Santorini black, well the pieces which are just plain plastic that is, I already have the Corris grey bottoms so thought doing them in Santorini black would suit it as I have the roof this colour and the grill, vents, mirrors etc.
I'm sure it's quite a easy job as I'm only removing the plactic bumpers them selves not the actual metal bumper.

I've searched online everywhere and all I can find is how to remove the front grill that's it ? Do you guys have any links or how to's on this ?

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks.

Hi Guys.

I managed to download the workshop manual from Naks signiture which worked and I found some info on there about removing the bumpers front and back, it's just pictures but least it's something

Thanks for that Naks

I’ll have to check that out Tom as I’m thinking about fitting the SVR bumpers to mine,I was going to get a svr but it’s going to cost me 20k plus for one a year newer than mine when I can get the bumpers & other bits & get them painted for about 2k,then fit them myself.

Also consider trawling YouTube: I found a chap who filmed the installation of the Glohh lights, so I used that as a guide.

I have found many, many tricks of the automotive DIY kind on YouTube, they've been invaluable to a n00b like me  --

Yea the workshop manual on Naks signiture is very good, there is a lot of useful information on there.

Don't blame you not upgrading if it's going to cost that much to upgrade to the SVR especially if it's just one year newer too Put it this way I can't see the SVR being much more different for you to spend 20k !!

I would understand if it was a completely different engine but it's not you have the same 5.0 supercharged with some tunning you could make the same Horse power and with the SVR bumpers fitted it would look like one, I'm sure you would still have plenty of cash left over for a lovely long holiday with the family too

If I find anything online about bumper removal I will post it on here, if I have no luck I will be doing my own youtube how to

Cheers.

I love YouTube I spend hrs on there. I think the sport L494's are still a little young but there are now video's getting on there with how to's as some are now over 3 years old :mrgreen
