How to remove the front bumper
- open the hood.
- under the hood, we pull out four pistons (there may just be latches), release them from the latches and remove the lining above the radiator grille (pull up).
- under the trim, we unscrew the six screws (twisted from top to bottom) that secure the upper part of the front bumper.
- on the bottom side, we unscrew the four screws (twisted from bottom to top) that secure the lower part.
- turn the wheels to the side.
- we release the front part of the wheel arch extensions (they are held on the latches, we pull them up from the bottom).
- in the wheel arches, we unscrew four screws on each side, which fasten the fenders (front part).
- behind the fenders, we unscrew one screw on each side, which fix the corners to the wings.
- release the latches in the wings (pull the corners towards you).
- with an assistant, we pull the bumper in front (we look at the wires).
- disconnect the connectors of electrical equipment.
How to remove the rear bumper
