Toyota Alphard bumper removal

At some point you may need to remove the Alphard’s bumper. I did this to repair some damage to the lower bumper, to provide an easier way to clean the headlights and to repair the wheel arch liner.

I see your Alphard attracts bird crap too. I don't know what they have been eating in my garden, but it's given them the screaming abdabs and no mistake!

It’s a constant battle lol.

Excellent video and explanation again, thank you. Have you done one on removal of the rear bumber? Thanks. Mick. Peterborough

[@Cuttothechase]

I haven’t. I only do the videos when i I have something to fix on my vehicle. Stay tuned though, you never know lol.

[@DougieAB]

Was the wheel arch liner torn where the clips go through the holes, and did you just do a repair to allow it to be re-attached to the chassis\bumper?

[@Cuttothechase]

Yes I did and then I drove through a flood very fast and ripped it to bits and shredded it off the road.

[@securemaple]

This bits at 2:40 how are these called and where to buy them? Are these same for all Toyotas or depend on model, year etc

[@Cuttothechase]

They are bumper retaining trim clips. You can get them from Toyota. They will not cost a lot.

Useful video as I want to remove mine at some point. Did you polish and coat the headlights - would be interested to see how it went.

[@Cuttothechase]

There will be videos on it on this channel.

[@Cuttothechase]

Id recommend anti uv coating them.

[@r1zw4n29]

hav u gt any videos showing how to install rear fog lights ❓

[@Cuttothechase]

Unfortunately no however the route that the rear camera takes in my video is the same as the rear fog light route

[@rynmynho5949]

If want to remove headlamp do i need to remove the bumper too?

[@Cuttothechase]

I honestly can’t remember but if you look at the video you may be able to see the screws holding it in at the bottom. My gut feeling is yes.
