The bumper cover comes off really easy. First off. The picture shown is with the steel bumper removed already. The blue circle shows 6 fasteners securing the top of the bumper cover. The green circle shows 1 of the 2 fasteners securing the cover, mounted inside the air vents. The red circle shows clamp on strips securing the cover to the fenders and also has a fastener inside each wheel well securing it. then there are a few more fasteners to the wheel well covers on each side.
Inside the bumper cover there is hard foam shaped to attach to the steel bumper (not shown)
....thank you for the pictures and explanation...re the front plumbing...while I am not planning disassembly of the 10Speed, I'll bet there are a few out here contemplating working with a front damaged B...It is certainly evident that it's best not to run into anything up front...probably $50,000 worth of fragile bits up there...what does a B front bumper by itself cost, if you were to buy from Bentley...JimB
Since my front bumper cover is already damaged (if you look close enough in the 1st pic in this thread, you can see the damage on the lower lip spoiler left side just below the center mesh), I am contemplating either fixing it myself or purchasing an after market one from Aero Function AF-1 for $1500.00
You could find a stock bumper cover for a 2005 Bentley around $2K. If you want a sport version plan to fork out $3K. The newer GTs have cheaper multiple covers
....am I mistaken that just the chrome Bentley grill would cost $1500 from a Bentley Dealer...back when I bought my cars there was a new Super Sport in black matte paint. The dealer said that was $30,000 upgrade which made no sense at all...JimB
....was having 4 tires put on my Volvo yesterday...had two hours to kill...walked over to BMW San Francisco...they had this great looking latest Sports Model featured on floor...all great Red and Black $160,000...guess what...everything made in Germany...except...Trans...Japan...whats up with that...JimB
