How To Remove Rear bumper

How To Remove Rear bumper



Start by taking the rear lights off to do this there is a wingnut behind each light unit.



Then pull the light unit towards you then right or left (my need a little force).



Then unplug the wiring.



Repeat for the other side.

Next pull the rubber from inside.



Then under the car there is two clips (can't think of their name) take these out.



Having 19's I found it quicker to take the wheels off



Undo the 3 torx 10 screws that hold the lining to the bumper



repeat for the other side.

You will need to remove the number plate lights (I didn't as I have a cam and it is very tight on the wiring).

Next you need to pull the bumper from the clips on the wing.



Unclip the 3 clips on the top under the light.



There’s is a support bracket which also needs to be unclipped.



Repeat for the other side.

Next there are two clips above in the centre (very hard to get pics of but you can't miss them).



Next unclip the wiring harness.



That's it the bumper will now pull away from the car.
