Front Bumper Removal
Saw a lot of threads on this but no real guide, switching out the grilles tonight and wanted an overview on how to get the front bumper cover off (with pdc)

thanks,

snow

Ok, bumper removed, grilles changed, bumper reinstalled.

4 bolts on each side of the bottom of the bumper, 4 screws in the middle, 5 bolts on top.

Give it a good tug starting on the drivers side, there is a clip below the fog light on each side. I'll make a diagram tmrw.

looks awesome with a blacked out front!

Was it easy? Where did you get the grills from?

I would give it a 4/10 on the hardness scale,

Got the grills from Evan at Tischer,

top grill... 51117159597
Bottom Grill... 51117163956

I would just check with him to confirm they will fit your x5.
