snap what clips  ??
bumper-
2bolts under bonnet
2bolts under arch under the flap
2 jus below that
2 under the front on the corners
3 along the bottom of it
undo middle one under arch aswell to get bumper off
lining....
should be bout 4-5 thingies need removing
some turn and theres one u gotta push the lil plug thru before the bolt thing wil come out
^gotta remove the linin before u can get to the other bolts holdin the arch
easier after few goes times

The Arches linings are a bastard to remove.
All the bits you have to undo are fairly straightforward.Its just getting the thing out.Prepare for a good hand mangling as you get pissed off with it.
I found brute force helped remove it and refit. There is nothing on them that you could snap. Unless your He-Man!!!
I found jacking the car up made it alot easier to get into the wheel Arch and get tools in to undo the bolts holding the Arches in place.
