yes its diy

take out the side of the boot and your see 4 torxs (2 either side) undo them, then on the inner arch your see some 8mm bolts unto them there is also one hiding on the inner arch by the wheel. Under the car your have some black plastic rivits with a trim tool remove them, the bumper will then slide off, remmber to diss connect the PDC plug when your removing the bumper :-) shouldnt take u more then 30mins

Just look for member "andy 545". Search all the topics he made. He made a DIY a while back. Those are super helpful.
