Easy job.
Remove front wheels. Remove wheel liners. Remove under carriage aluminium cover. Remove 3 screws on each side of the bumper to fender. 2 screws under grill attaches bumper to front support. disconnect corner marker electrical plugs on both side. Then pull out bumper. There is spring type clips on both side of the grill opening behind the bumper, which you can't see, you just have pull the bumper straight out. Hope this helps. Good Luck.

 

 

Thats for full bumper, once you remove bumper, than you remove & install splitter. Also, if you have parking sensor in front, you need to disconnect those before you remove bumper.

 

We are talking about the Vantage, right?

How about for the rear bumper?

 

I haven't removed rear bumper. But If you search forum, I think I saw somebody had procedure for rear bumper.

 

I asked Morries Aston Martin how much to remove the grill on My V12S as I'm getting the grating anodized - they said $415. Now I'm not exactly that handy - light bulbs about it for me. It took my incompetent set of skill exactly 15 minutes to get the grill off!

 

many thanks to everyone who chipped in with info i took the car to a more savvy person than me and he's managed to change the side strakes front splitter rear tail pipes, rear diffuser and exhaust

Cant pick the car up till mid week but I'm pretty excited to say the least, all carbon and quicksilvered up!!!

 

Where did you get the carbon spliter/difuser, how much? what kind of exhaust are putting in?

 

I managed to source the splitter and the diffuser on eBay, for circa £500 for the rear diffuser which was a right find as it was spotless no cracks scratches or damage, then £600 for the front splitter again eBay, i got side strakes from Davina Tech they were like 350 quid i think.

Ive gone for a quicksilver supersport exhaust and the guy thats fitting it CSK Fabrications is custom making me a secondary decat x pipe

Ive bought the light inserts too on eBay via an american company for £136.00

Might do intakes but I've about run out of funds so might have to wait.

I'll post some pics once I've collected it.

 

Are you planning to sell your old parts-spliter, difuser?

 

probably not as they aren't carbon buddy and when i sell the car in 2 years time i'll prob put back to standard
