How to remove the front bumper
- open the hood.
- under the hood, we unscrew one screw (twisted from top to bottom), which secures the central part.
- at the edges of the front part, we remove two decorative pads (they are held on latches, you need to press the retainer with a flat screwdriver and pull the pads towards you).
- behind the pads, we unscrew two bolts (twisted from the bottom up, you will need a crank with an extension cord) that fasten the brackets.
- unscrew the wheels to the left or right, depending on which side of the bumper you will unscrew first.
- in the wheel arches, unscrew the screws that secure the fenders (front part).
- we pull the edges of the bumper from the side locks (we pull the edge of the bumper down with effort and towards ourselves).
- with an assistant, we pull the front bumper forward (we look for wires and hoses).
- disconnect the fog lamp connectors and headlight washer hoses (if any).
How to remove the rear bumper
- open the trunk lid.
- remove the cover plate in the upper part (held on the latches, pull up).
- under the cover plate, unscrew one screw (twisted from top to bottom, may be missing).
- in the wheel arches, we unscrew two screws on each side, which fasten the fenders (rear part).
Then there are two options.
The first:
- in the trunk, we lift the floor covering and unscrew four screws under it, which attach the brackets to the body (two screws are hidden by the side panels of the trunk).
The second one (more preferable if there is a tow bar):
- under the cover plate, with a cap wrench, we unscrew two bolts on each side (marked with blue arrows), which attach the brackets to the bumper.
Both options:
- we pull off the corners from the side locks (we pull the edge of the bumper down and towards ourselves).
- we pull off the bumper on ourselves (it is advisable to do this together, so as not to scratch the paint on the wings).
