Hi just received my shiney new grill mesh for my cooper s - , was wondering if anyone has fitted these before & if it was a simple job as there are no instructions ( I'm a girl - I NEED INSTRUCTIONS lol )

would not like to pull the old ones off then get stuck having to take bumpers off etc

thanks

Hi Jayex, when i fitted mine i ended up taking the bumpers off anyway, much easier to fit that way despite involving a bit more work.

Bumpers are realy easy to take off

If your capable of changing a wheel, your capable of changing a bumper

really?.. ok think i will give it a go then, managed to fit my K&N typhoon myself, but thought removing the bumbers would be a bit more tricky...

Its easy, you need someone to help when lifting the bumpers off (just to be 100% sure you don't drop and scratch them) but its dead easy. Hell if I can do it
