Removing lower part of bumper ???

[BurgerKing]

Will I be able to remove the lower part of my bumper to show all the bits and bobs behind there, and soon a steering guard in it's place. Or do i have to buy a new bumper ????????

It's reasonably easy :)

The lower valance has a number of fixings (screws, bolts, can't remember!). Once you've removed the central valance, you'll need to trim the end caps. As you've got a 300 (?) there should be a visible "line" that lines up with the bottom of the bumper. Careful use of a jigsaw will have your endcaps trimmed in a few minutes! And that's it :D

Have a look at my pictures http://members.mud-club.com/profiles/gords/gallery/bumper_trim to give you an idea of what it'll look like.

Must say I've always kept mine on. Only ever caught it the once when I got stuck at Whitworth and had to pulled out backwards and one of the light pods popped out.

Sorry but looks OTT to me, maybe I not trying as hard as Colin  :?:

I took mine off and fitted a steering guard the day before the Wales trip last year (with topple). I got stuck/couldn't get up a step on a rutted track - and it was the steering guard that was hitting the ground :shock:  Not much chance the valance would have survived
