Default A4 1.9TDI (AWX) : how to get the front bumper off?!!!

Hi,

New here and would REALLY appreciate your help.

I have an Audi A4 1.9TDI (8/2002) and am trying to take the front bumper off.

However -

I've undone the bolts but CAN'T get them out.

This has already taken me 2 hrs and I'm at my wits end.

I've taken some annual leave this week from work and this was intended to be one of my more *enjoyable* diy jobs - but it is rapidly turning into nothing short of a nightmare.

Can anyone please give me some advice as to how to get the bolts out? Surely it shouldn't take this long to do?
Is there a *correct* way to do it as I am sure I must be doing something wrong ???

thanks - I would really appreciate your help.

Ken

Can you get them to turn? You may want to use a tool with a longer handle for more leverage.
