I have a 1991 V8 Limited and need help with instructions/pics on how to remove and refit the rubber lip under the front bumper. I had a friend look at it and was told I would need to remove the bumper, thought I would check if this is correct.
Thanks

Mine was just removed by undoing all the bolts that screw it to the bumper. Nothing else.

Many, MANY screws all around. The lip is attached to two metal reinforcing pieces which are clipped onto the inside of the bumper and only visible with the under engine trays removed (only 10mm bolts I think, but mine were a pain to remove)
Easiest if you remove the 3 under engine trays.
I resprayed mine a few of weeks ago...Get a nice plakky container, 'cause there's a LOT of screws and screw clips...
