Depending on the year of manufacture, the mounting points may vary slightly.
How to remove the front bumper
- lift up and fix the hood.
- under the hood, we unscrew two screws and pull out four clips that attach the upper part of the front bumper and the radiator grille.
- on the bottom side, we unscrew six screws that attach the fenders and two screws that attach the bottom panel (you can also unscrew six screws and remove the bumper without this panel, but it's easier to remove with the panel in my opinion).
- in wheel arches, we pull out two clips on each side in the wheel arch expanders (the lower half of the wheel arch expander enters the upper one, so first you need to release the edge of the upper wheel arch expander).
- we release the sides from the latches in the wings (you need to pull the corners of the bumper towards you).
- with the assistant, we remove the bumper forward (pay attention to the wires).
- release the connectors of electrical components (if any).
How to remove the rear bumper
- open the trunk lid.
- under the trunk lid, remove two plugs and unscrew the screws under them.
- unscrew two screws on each side, release their internal pistons (pull on yourself) and remove the taillights.
- under the taillights, we pull out one clip on each side (inserted from top to bottom), which fix the upper part of the rear bumper.
- from the bottom side, pull out two clips and unscrew the two screws (twisted and inserted from the bottom up) that secure the lower part.
- in the wheel arches, we unscrew two screws, pull out two clips, release them from the latches and remove the fenders.
- we pull out one clip on each side, which fix the corners to the brackets in the wings.
- release the latches in the wings (gently pull the corner towards you. The upper wheel arch expander will interfere, you need to release its lower part from the latch).
- with the assistant, we remove the bumper back (we look behind the wires).
- release the connectors of electrical components (if installed).
