Nige, It's a while since I took mine off, but I remember it being a bit of a bar steward. Looking back at my photos, I think I took off the grills and the head light covers along with the headlights themselves, which gave access to some of the nuts and I'm pretty sure I got to the rest from underneath after taking off the under tray. Quite a few of the studs sheared off which actually made things easier. Not sure if I also had to remove the chassis extensions.
Photo shows how it looked once the cover was off.

Oh my days!!
I have to take off the back bumper cover as well !
I think I may leave this one to the body shop,at least they will have a car lift.
Thanks John
