I recently changed my headlight bulds to match my HID fog klit 8000K and if you have the headlight washer nozzles your gonna have to take the bumper off man. I had too. I got my buddy to do it but yeah we could find another way. Its not that bad to take off though

i believe you will have to remove the bumper in order to change the lowbeam bulb. twinspoppa has a great write up on removing the facelift bumper, search the forum.

you can attempt to change it without removing the bumper, but it would be extremely difficult, as there is not alot of space..

If you have E53 you don't have to remove the bumper. I know because 2 days ago I change my bulbs, but of course I didn't do it by my self, but mechanic change it for me, He has a small palms so he only open bonnet and change, I know 'cause I was watching him

yes, I forget about that, some engines need more place, but in 3.0L you don't need to take off bumper.
