So it won't take off the paint if the velcro is removed slowly or with a hairdryer?

Default There is no room to get to the back of the bumper cover.

I guess I'd have to remove the cover from the actual bumper frame.

Default I really want to do this and I have the magnets. I guess I'll have to take apart the entire

bumper (frame and cover) though.

Default Has anyone removed the bumper cover from the bumper frame on an RS4 bumper?

Is this easy to do?

Default For the RS4 bumper, I guess you'll have to remove the whole thing...should be worth it just for how

clean it ends up. I stuck some felt pads to the magnets on the plate to protect the car paint as mentioned below...

Default Do this, put an L bracket on the bottom of the license plate, and then

Attach the other half of the L bracket to the underside of the front bumper.

You would have to drill the holes on the underside of your bumper, but you'd never see them unless you were on the ground looking up.
