As far as I know it's either some simple clips or adhesive. When your new one arrives you'll be able to see how it goes on, not rocket science I bet. Discovery 4 HSE

There are about 12 little 'tongues' that slot through the backing bumper, these have a tooth type end that holds the trim on, difficult to remove from the front, as Mick knows, but straightforward if you take the bumper off and release the tongues one by one, starting at one end. |

Thank you! I don't think I will be removing the bumper but can you see then from underneath the car? Mike |

I took my titanium silver one to replace it with a black one while the bumper was off.

Removing the front bumper in that case is not very hard, I did it on my last one, its actually held on by about 10 screws. Discovery 4 HSE

Removing the strip is a PITA job with the bumper on... |

I assumed there would be a video like the one for the rear bumper.

If you have a friend to help you makes it easier , lying underneath the front of the car you will see where the rim of the splitter bar starts ……

I think spraying the bar in BMW Titanium Silver would be easier! |
