Shouldn't be necessary to remove the bumper. PM Jeckle, he removed his a few weeks ago.

Or get Munya to come over & help you remove it (he wants one).

Instead of removing the towbar, how about spraying the exposed part a matt black? That should hide it.

4 bolts seems like a mission? pray to god you don't need to change a spare wheel, that 5th might kill you

lol 4 bolts would be easy, but everyone has a different idea of how it will come off at the moment,

Yeah good idea sayers! Hmm, tempting, but still not sure if I would use it... But yeah black would look alot better than crome, stands out so much!

Ill send jeckle a PM, He might be able to let me know how it was done

Think of all the weight you could get rid of with a few bolts and some time on your back.

Bumper should be able to stay as noted.

Straight roads are for fast cars, twisty roads are for fast drivers. I have or am neither.

I put mine on without taking the bumper off, but it took a bit of persuasion to get it past the bumper without taking it off.

I have a GC8

get a hitch pin lock
then you can use your towbar tongue to hide your key at the beach

The bumper doesnt need to be removed but a few bolts and clips need removing to allow the bumper to lift to clear the tow bar.
when these bars are fitted to a GD a bracket is removed from the center behind the number plate, the bumper will flap around a bit without this in place, if you stick your head underneath you should see where the towbar now replaces that bracket.

But what to do with the other key for the hitch lock?
