Does anyone here know how to re-fit it once removed?

Im a bit confused, did you remove it? If so then just fit it the reverse to how you removed it?

It's not that simple.

It's just one screw that holds it on, i can get the bottle sat back in the right position but the holes won't line up for me to put the screw in. It's like a centermeter off. It's in such an awkward no matter how much i try and move it it won't line up.

Yeah I can imagine them being easy to fit normally, problem with mine was I had a little bump a while back and the metal was bent, making it impossible to line back up with the screw hole, had to try get it back in shape, finally got there haha

Now that's out the way I can get on with fitting my grill (god help me)

Haha ah i see! Glad you got it sorted, what grill you fitting? Sp? Fairly easy to be honest long as you have the clips haha. Takes a bit of adjusting here and there to get it to fit the curvature of the bumper though i found with mine.

Cheers bud.

Yeah I got the clips when i bought the new style SP badge, Yeah man I'm just wondering if I should go to the lengths of taking the bumper off to do it or not, seems a lot of work. Do you know if it actually looks any different if you fit it without taking it off?

I did it without. But tbh it is easier by removing the bumper. Clips are really fiddly without removing the bumper.

I'd agree with this, definitely easier to remove the bumper although not necessary. For the sake of a few bolts i'd just take it off, can get it sitting perfectly in the cutout then.
