Removal of front grill and bumper assembly

I have to remove the whole front grille and bumper assembly and have sussed out that the sems bolts at the top of the grill have to be removed plus the headlamp assemblies, a number of screws and bolts at the inner mudguards, protector plates etc. The assembly seems to still be attached from somewhere between the inner mudguards and the lower assembly. Can someone confirm whether or not the front wheels have to come off together with the inner mudguards so that other bolts etc. can be removed? Many thanks Ralph

The bumper assembly was removed and the "styling bar" fitted perfectly. I know there are mixed feelings about the bar but I think it looks nice and adds a bit of protection from the lousy b Censored s who dont like to see anybody with something they dont have. Honesty doesn't hurt anybody! I will post the photos on the gallery in the next couple of days so that other forum members cn refer to the thread for fittinf because the LR instructions are crap.
Once again many thanks including CG for his thread to the LR accessory pages. Ralph

Have you fitted the styling bar yet?

I have lost 2 x bumpers....got fed up and had a steel bumper made. Not most attractive but VERY affective!

Can't seem to post a pic from my iPad but you can view in my gallery.

Looking forward to seeing your bar fitted Thumbs Up
