Does anyone know how long it takes to remove the front bumper and also have a guidance as to how many bolts there are, do I also have to remove the headlights or does the bumper sit under them without the need for their removal?

Going to repair the rabbit/badger/alien/pikey/child damage that I received when hitting something lower than wheel height last night on a country road, grrrr.

Takes me about 5-10 mins to remove. The lights stay in place. There are about 4 screws, 2 screws ( one in each wheel arch) and about 4 bolts underneath. Then you pop the edges away and pull forward.
