  • Hello guys! We are back to a very complete tutorial! Certainly certain things may not be new but there are certain details and tips on how I like to do it and why. To access the headlights it is indeed necessary to lower the bumper and that's what I tried to demonstrate, at the same time demonstrating how to remove and disassemble the entire (or almost all) bumper to be repaired and painted. For all this it is necessary to access the lateral fastenings of said bumper and for that to remove the wheel arch linings is imperative in my opinion. For the more experienced, pull it a side may be enough.
    For the lower part it is not mandatory to remove the lower engine lining, but in my case it was already dismantled due to the work of the air conditioning. Once again, for the less experienced, its removal can facilitate the whole process.

    If you take out the plastics that covers the fog litght is a lot more easier to remove the bolts holding the bumper to the wing panels. Futhermore you dont need to take out entriely the wheel arches/liners, just remove 1 or 2 screws.

    Ah yes, this meticulous work that is hard to film but valuable to new users who lack confidence doing it themselves without prior experience. Well done. Question: my 2nd hand Alfa 156 mk1 is missing the engine under-tray...should I buy an aftermarket one, do you think it's necessary for the protection of the vehicle? Is there a brand you'd recommend?

    • @alfaromeonoproblem
      @alfaromeonoproblem  Рік тому +1

      Hello. Thank you very much! It did take a lot to record a edit, yes. For the under tray I really Really recommend one for sure. It gives a lot of stability in mid hi speed driving and it will protect for sure from moist.
      Beware, aftermarket ones are brittle and not fit well, but better then nothing. A good used one from the second series (rubberised plastic instead of fiber) you last you a life time even if is constantly hitting the ground.

      It is a 1.3V, only 84,000km and 900 euro.

      Anyone that has worked on old cars i.e. fixed them up, restored them etc. KNOWS to grease all outside nuts and bolts if you ever think they might need to be undone. In a dry climate and dust, you can guarantee they will be ''rusted'' solid when you need to remove them. (More like dried out by the dust).

      There are 5 screws in total 4 on top and one in the scudetto hole. Remove all and then gently pull up. You don’t have to remove the bumper.
