How to Remove a 2002 E430 Bumper


1. Park the E430 on a flat, level surface and engage the parking brake. Turn off the engine.
2. Place a jack under the E430 and raise it up to a comfortable level. Loosen the wheel nuts on both wheels. Remove the front wheel covers with a wheel wrench and remove the wheel nuts. Take off both front wheels.
3. Remove the inner wheel well liners from both wheel wells with a flat-head screwdriver.
4. Remove the front screws from the rear of the bumper, accessible through the wheel.
5. Remove the Torx screws from underneath the bumper with a Torx screwdriver. Pull the bumper off of the front of the E430.
