R56 sideskirts/arches/front&rear lip removal

[CoNs]

anyone know how easy to remove the lower platics?

thinkin on colorcoding it, whats likelyhood of me bursting all the clips?

i'm sure i seen a tutorial on NAM but just checked with no luck

:ragin:

Dead easy to do the skirts.
Go to the how too section and see my guide.

The bumpers are deasd easy. Very similar to the R50 set up but for R56 you have to pop off the wheel arch plastics first as thyere is a screw hidden behind there for the bumpers.

cheers, its just the plastics thats coming off

already had arch liners off before when i installed Cooper S bumpers.. so its not a knew experience :argh:

will check your guide !

its quite easy to remove plastics
just ensure you remove all screws first then it mostly pull off
bumper mouldings con be removed withot removing bumper
just be carefull when pulling trim tey are quite flimsy and can be easily torn
buy yourself a set of clips for arch trims and sill clips youll prob break all off them i know i did :thumbs up:

thanks for everyone's advice

took everything off before i went on my holidays ( 2 weeks ago ) snapped nearly all clips lol

all the bits were handed to the bodyshop before i left, came back my holiday last night and to my surprise my bro and dad had bought me all the new clips and even fitted everything back for me!..

not to mention my dad got someone in to my work and tinted the windows aswell!! jackpot!
