Depending on the year of manufacture, the mounting points may vary slightly.
How to remove the front bumper
- open the hood.
- under the hood, we pull out eight pistons and remove the plastic lining above the radiator grille.
- under the trim, we unscrew two screws (twisted from top to bottom) that secure the upper part of the front bumper (the screws are hidden).
- on the bottom side, we unscrew eight screws (twisted from the bottom up), which fasten the protection and fenders.
- bend the protection down and unscrew four more screws.
- turn the wheels to the side.
- in the wheel arches, we unscrew three 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
- open the trunk lid.
- remove the rear trunk panel trim (pull up) and open the pencil cases in the side linings.
- in pencil cases, we free up access to nuts.
- through the pencil cases and under the back panel lining, unscrew four nuts (you will need a long cap head of 10 mm, do not drop the nuts into the hidden cavity).
- on the bottom side, we unscrew two screws (there may be nuts, twisted from the bottom up) that attach the lower part of the rear bumper.
- in the wheel arches, we unscrew four screws on each side, which fasten the fenders (rear part) and sides (in order not to remove the wheels, use a ratchet with a TORX nozzle).
- release the latches in the wings (pull the corners towards you).
- release the four retainers in the trunk opening (pull on yourself).
- with an assistant, we gently pull the bumper back (we look at the wires).
- disconnect the connectors of electrical equipment.
