How to remove the front bumper
- open the hood.
- under the hood, we unscrew the four screws (twisted from top to bottom) that secure the radiator grille. It is unnecessary to remove the radiator grille separately.
- in the lower part, unscrew the screws (eight pieces, twisted from bottom to top).
- turn the wheels to the side.
- we unscrew the screws in the wheel arches (three pieces on each side), which fasten the fenders (front part).
- we unscrew one screw on each side (twisted from bottom to top), which fix the corners of the front bumper to the wings.
- release the latches in the wings (pull the corners towards you).
- release the latches in the front.
- with an assistant, we remove the bumper forward (we look so as not to break the wires and hoses).
- disconnect the fog lamp connectors (if any).
- (if any) disconnect the headlight washer hoses (please note that liquid will leak out of the pack).
How to remove the rear bumper
- open the trunk lid.
- in the side panels of the trunk, open the hatches, unscrew the two fixing plastic screws under them and remove the taillights.
- we unscrew the five screws (twisted from bottom to top) that secure the lower part of the rear bumper.
- in the wheel arches, we unscrew three screws on each side, which fasten the fenders (rear part).
- we move the fenders to the side and unscrew under them two screws on each side (two are twisted from the bottom up, two are twisted on the side of the wheels), which fasten the sides of the bumper.
- release the latches in the wings (pull the corners towards you).
- release the retainers under the taillights (you need to lift them with a flat screwdriver).
- release the latches in the trunk opening.
- with an assistant, we remove the rear bumper back (we look behind the wires).
- disconnect the electrical equipment connectors (if any).
