Either a dremel or a stanley knife and a hiardryer to soften the plastic (with some heat) and then a rasp to fettle it is how I did mine

I ment the top black strip that goes behind the number plate, is it easy to remove that (i know i should have got it done it at the same time), any tips, dremil sounds like a good idea...

The black bit is a part of the bumper - it's all one piece. Sharp knife works (it does finger tips too) but the dremel is easier and safer Just follow the shape of the black plastic piece to cut it out
