I am new to the page and am trying desparately to remove my front bumper cover from the car. I have all but 2 screws removed and can not figure out where the two are that remain which are on the side of the bumper. If anyone knows or can help me find a diagram that shows where the screws are.. It would be GREATLY appreciated..

Thanks in advance

I just took off my front bumper on my '99 E320. Not sure if it is the same for a little newer E430. My bumper was held on by 4 fastners. 2 nuts near the center of the bumper, just below the high beams. And two bolts, just below the front parking/clearance lights on the left and right sides. They are small, 10mm heads. I took some pics, I will try to update this post tonight.

Here are a few pics of when i removed the front bumper.

081 thru 083 shows where the fasteners are.

Two on the sides and two in the front below the high beams.
