    Thanks. Haven't been on in a while. Any advice or link to a how to on the bumper removal. Seems pretty straight forward, just don't want to miss any steps.

    Thanks in advance.

    Straight forward work. Remove inspection pan. Remove both front tires. Remove all Torx screws from the middle of the wheel whell liner to the front of the car (more on the passenger side than the drivers side). Pull liner back so that you can get socket inside to remove three bolts each side that fasten bumper to fender. Remove intercooler grilles, and remove two long bolts that fasten up through bumper support and sandwich each bumper piston. Pull cover off partially to expose inards. Clamp hose from windshield washer resvoir to front headlight washers and unclip at coupling. Unclip horns and DRL's (fog lights for the US folk) from each side. Pull cover off fully.

    Might have missed something small in that list, but that is what I recall off the top of my head having removed the covers on all of my rides here more than a dozen times. Don't quote me on sizes for all the fasteners. Too old to remember that stuff... lol

    Lights can then be removed out through the front of the radiator front clip by unclipping the harnes, removing the two top torx fasteners and the one stuck down inside next to the fender.
    '02 S6 Avant Silver - Pokey | Carbon Black/Ebony RS6 w/ stuff - darn quick | '03 Daytona Grey/Ebony RS6 w/ more stuff - quicker yet | '91 NSX CDN issue with 6spd & BBSC - quicker yet and then some | '87 Buick GNX OEM clone w/ lots of stuff - quickest hands down

    Thanks. That is a great set of instructions to go by. I helped a friend do it like 5 years ago, but I too am getting old and couldn't remember all the details.

    I really appreciate it!
