Hey everyone!

I am hoping someone could lead me in the right direction to a DIY on removing our front bumper cover, ducts, carrier. etc.

I hit a metal plate (which was sitting almost 4 inches tall) around a corner and sheered off my front splitter and the mounting plastics from underneath the car as well.

My insurance will count it as an at-fault collision, so I'm going to repair and replace by myself.

I am going to attempt to remove everything Thursday, so hopefully I can find some guidance before then!

If not I will be posting a very sad DIY.

there are 4 screws, 2 on each side under the wheel wells in the front above the reflector, as well as the front bolts under the weatherstripping for the hood. PDC prb have to disconnect the sensors. Also the bolts on the bottom, in your case attached to the splitter. Its easy to remove the bumper.

Attached some documents from ISTA. It's not in the correct order because there's a lot of separate procedures.

Does anyone know how to properly remove this PDC connector? I've done everything but this connector won't budge!

Edit: Had to squeeze lower in the sides. Bingo!
