Take the front grill out, The grille and headlights came off to get at screws at the front end, remove the three plastic plugs under the grill, and remove the splash guard under the bumper, jack up front of car and remove front wheels. Take the majority of inner wheel arch retaining bolts out and fold the front back out of the way (don't take it out completely) Remove the engine under-tray. Remove the two 10mm bolts fixing the bumper to the wing on each side (bit awkward to get to but not too bad). Remove the bumper, note you need to push the sides down first as there is a pin that locates them. Fit the new bumper.... bolts, plugs etc, line up and tighten. Refit everything else.
Remove headlights and grill. grill has a torx bolt each side, and undo retaining clips on the headlights where it clips onto them each headlight has a torx bolt behind at the back under where the wires go in, and 1 torx bolt on the top, and one behind the grill.
under where the grill was there is 2 or 3 black round push clips.
Remove the engine under-tray
