How to remove the front bumper
- open the hood.
- remove the radiator grille. There are two options for fixing the upper part of the grid. Either it will be four screws that need to be unscrewed, or instead of screws, there will be four latches that need to be released with a flat screwdriver. You also need to release two latches on each side under the headlights.
- under the radiator grille, unscrew the three screws (twisted from top to bottom) that secure the upper part of the front bumper.
- in the front part, we remove two decorative overlays.
- under the linings and in the lower grille, we unscrew five bolts (twisted from bottom to top).
- if there is, unscrew the screws in the wheel arches.
- with an assistant, we remove the front bumper forward, freeing it from the brackets in the wings (we look for wires).
- disconnect the connectors of fog lights and turn signals.
How to remove the rear bumper
- open the trunk lid.
- in the trunk opening, pull out four plugs (remove the bar).
- under the plugs (bar), unscrew the four screws that secure the upper part of the rear bumper.
- on the bottom side, we unscrew two screws (twisted from the bottom up), which fasten the lower part.
- now the bumper is held only on plastic brackets in the wings, with the assistant we take the sides and remove them parallel to the ground back.
