Exactly the same. It can be done without taking the front bumper off but it's tight.

2 torx screws attaching the arch liner to the front bumper need to come out, then the arch liner. 3 x 10mm bolts holding the black bumper retainer then the 2 x 10mm bolts behind that. Line of bolts across the top (8 IIRC and all 10mm). Then 2 x 10mm bolts behind the sill cover, 1 x 10mm bolt at the top hinge edge from the door side and 1 x 10mm bolt about halfway up the hinge edge from inside the wheel arch. And it's off ;)

As a matter of interest will a facelift model front wing fit directly onto a pre-facelift model with no problems?

thanks
