Depending on the year of manufacture and body type, the mounting points differ slightly.
How to remove the front bumper
- open the hood.
- under the hood, we unscrew two screws, through the holes with a flat screwdriver we release four latches (marked with blue arrows) that attach the upper part of the front bumper.
- on the bottom side, unscrew the five bolts that secure the crankcase protection (you can only unscrew the three front bolts and lower the front edge of the protection).
- under the protection, we pull out four pistons and unscrew five screws on each side in the side parts (twisted and inserted from the bottom up).
- we turn the wheels depending on which side you will disassemble.
- in the wheel arches, we pull out three pistons on each side, which fasten the fenders (front part).
- we push the fenders to the side and 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 the assistant, we remove the bumper forward (we look behind the wires).
- disconnect the electrical equipment connectors (if any).
How to remove the rear bumper
- open the trunk doors.
- in the trunk opening, we unscrew the six screws that secure the middle and side parts of the rear bumper.
- in models with a footrest: we unscrew the four screws (twisted from top to bottom).
- for models without a footrest: unscrew two screws from the bottom side (twisted from the bottom up).
- remove the middle part.
- we release the latches in the wings (pull them towards us) and remove the side parts.
- we release the connectors of electrical equipment (if any).
