Hey!

Has anyone got some tips/pointers for removing the front canards? I’ve had to front bumper off to unclip them but you still don’t get clear access to them!

I left the bumper on when I did mine, I simply put my hand inside the vent, pulled the tabs holding them on away and then pulled firmly but gently from the bottom. 10min job.

Thank you! I’m guessing you pulled the tabs towards the centre of the canard or did you push them away?
Glad I don’t have to take the bumper off again just for them! It was off anyway for the grill!

I didn’t even get the bumper off for the grill. Took about an hour with trim tools.
you pull the tabs towards the middle of the hole/vent, it can help to pull a tab with one hand and the canard with the other.
