    Thank you for your help,I actually need to change the inner upper grill on my scirocco as it it’s cracked. Do you need to remove the bumper to do this please?

      On my one they came out ok without taking bumper off actually... But they were damaged to be honest.

    Wen you took the bumper of, did it go straight back on and line up 100% ? A lot of people say wen you take the bumper of its hard to line back up

    • @AlexTheGrumpyOne
      @AlexTheGrumpyOne  Před 3 lety +1

      My ones lined up well. It takes a bit of work to get it back on but as long as you have broke any plastic locators it will be fine

    Excellent video & description! To your knowledge is there a way to can remove just the lower grille without having to remove the whole bumper? I don’t have anyone to help me and I don’t think I’m confident enough removing the whole thing on my own. Thanks for the content!

    • @AlexTheGrumpyOne
      @AlexTheGrumpyOne  Před 2 lety +1

      Thank you very much.
      Depending on the type of your bumper. Usually the fitment is very tight and the tabs might snap. I would personally recommend taking the bumper off.

      @mohamedneeewmahdi7877 Hi, I've brought my car and the R bumper to a repair shop. They've swapped my bumper and the result was very nice. As far as I can remember, they didn't need any extra parts, but I'm not 100% sure

    Awesome mate, actually looking to remove both the front bumper and the right sidefender soon, if I may ask how long did it take you to remove the bumper? (just a ballpark)
    Also, was putting the bumper back much more difficult than taking it off?

    • @AlexTheGrumpyOne
      @AlexTheGrumpyOne  Před 3 lety

      Taking it off is around 30 min max to be honest, maybe quicker if you know where everything is.
      Putting it back you just have to be careful not to scratch the bodywork. Use some masking tape around it :)

    This is a VERY confusing video. You show you removing the headlights to remove the bumper but you dont need to. Very misleading

    • @AlexTheGrumpyOne

      If you listen to the video I've mentioned that you don't need to remove them. I've just done it because it makes it easier and I wanted to show other bits for people as well. It's only extra 5 min to get headlights out.

      Yes there is no need. In a video I did say that I only removed them to make it easier and just to show how to get to horn and screen wash pump.
