    Right, i understand where all the screws and nuts to get the bumper off are,

    but the only ones i have problem with is the Bolts on the side (behind the gaurds at front of wheel)

    They simply wont budge, and im unsure if its the right one as i cant get proper acess into it.

    Someone got a picture to show me exactly where it is and looks like as i think im doing the wrong one as neither side is budging.

    Thanks.

    I had this problem! it was because the bolt thread had been stripped. if im thinking of the same one its on a plastic bracket holding your bumper to the body work. i had to take the self tappers out of the guard behind the wheel carefully braking as few as possible and take it off to access it. other option is jacking it up and trying to access it from underneath
