Title: Any tips on installing r32 style lower bumper part?
Post by: spiritdust on March 22, 2023, 11:00:20 am

Hey, got r32 style lower bumper part painted and ready to put it on, any tips on how to? On YT surprisingly I found zero information, Just one video, best way is to remove whole bumper and disconnect lower part from inside?
TIA

Few guides on YouTube.

You’re best to remove the bumper completely once removed unclip the lower portion then add your R32 valance. It can be done without full removal. But I’d recommend following a YouTube guide learn how it’s taken off… do it properly.

Hey, thanks.
Yes, the best and easiest way was to remove whole bumper.  :drinking:
