remove the headlight, and jack the car up.

There's x4 17mm bolts on the front chassis rails. That's your main reo mounting point.

pull back the inner guards - there is a 10mm bolt right at the tip of the bumper near the guard, and one all the way up behind the indicator (you reach all the way in behind the front guard to get it.

She should come off with some wiggling after that.

Whoever designed that bit... should be shot... with a chainsaw rocket launcher

Thanks for that Marv :)I just recently went to the wreckers and they have a couple of libs the same colour which is handy and now that i know how to get it off, that makes things easier for when i get the bumper and also the passenger wheel arch panel thingie which i can get off once the bumper is off :)
