Hey fellas,
So, I need to remove the front JCW bumper from my 2013 R56 Mini.
I've had a look around on the internet and found a couple of videos showing bumper removal. However, none of these videos or descriptions showed how
to remove the front bumper on a 2013 JCW model.
Any of you fells able to assist?
Much appreciated.

 

I don't remember exactly, but there's 5-6 screws you have to remove underneath the front bumper. Additionally there is one fastener connecting the wheel arch and the front bumper on each side ahead of the front wheels. You also have to take off the lower front bumper grill and remove two screws behind it. I think that's most of it

 

Thanks for the reply. I've looked under the front of the bumper and I can't see any screws at all. All I can see, are what appears to be three 'push' connectors holding it in place??
Mine is a late 2013 version, I'm wondering it was 'improved' towards the end of it's cycle and different connectors were used??

 

They may have been push connectors now that I think about it. I'd have to look under the car again to be sure but I want to say you are right and the screws are actually these push fasteners.

 

I had another look and found that there were indeed two screws. They were 'hidden' in a circular recess as were the three push fasteners. Thanks for taking the time to reply.
