A pheasant flew in front of the car and caused some damage to the grill so I got a new one from BMW for £40.
I asked the stores guys to give me a print-out of the instructions and apparently the first thing is to remove the bumper - what a PITA because that's not something I could tackle myself. Probably cost four times the price of it just for them to put it in there.
So - wondering if it actually can be done without taking the bumper off?

It's easier than you think. Why waste your cash on someone that will take their sweet time and charge you 40-60 bucks/euros/pounds for labor hours when you can remove a total of 13 screws, and 2 lids (Bumper windshield sprayer), slight tug on the tp ends of the bumper and WALA!!!!!!
Bumper removed. To take of and install it should not take you more than 30 minutes max.
