    Can’t you see where the pegs are on the new one? It should indicate where the old ones are held on.

    Personally, I’ve seen a gentle tug to get a cover off into full blown warfare and more power applied than Hulk Hogan can muster.

    Most plastics when cold become more rigid and consequently more difficult to bend. I would suggest some gentle heat and if possible behind the cover where the lugs are.

    I've fitted bumper in-serts front & rear and I'm very pleased with the look. The front one's I cleaned the bumper warmed the bumper with a hair dryer because they stick better on a warm surface. The rear one's just push in once you remove the original one's

    Just remembered the SE & HSE has different colour bumpers. The HSE is brighter silver so if you order some off eBay check your ordering the right colour. The front one fit either car 👍

    2019 Discovery SDV6 HSE Lux Corris Grey

    Looks Great, I've been thinking of doing the same thing with my Corris Grey car but how difficult are the rears to take off? And in relation to the front ones do they interfere with the parking sensors as I've read elsewhere?

    I'll keep my eyes open for your car as I'm only in Widnes myself. Bow down

    They have on mine, strangely the better positioned one on the right interferes, but not 100% of the time, so sensors are now turned off until i get around to getting them back off and sticking on again

    Thanks for that, so would you suggest forgetting them or fitting them somehow differently?

    BlackDog the rear just pop out with a little help with a screwdriver, you can see were the luges are on the replacement one so you can see were its fix in. The front ones do sometimes affect the parking sensors, but I can live with that, because they make the car look so good. I will keep a eye for you to Thumbs Up
