How to remove the front bumper
- lift up and fix the hood.
- under the hood, we unscrew the four screws (twisted from top to bottom) that secure the upper part of the bumper (radiator grille).
- in the lower part, we unscrew three screws that attach the underbody lining and six screws that attach the wheel arch extensions and fenders.
- turn the wheels inside out.
- we release the front part of the wheel arch extensions from the latches (you need to pull on yourself with both hands on both sides of the expander, starting from the bottom).
- in the wheel arches, we unscrew three screws on the left and three on the right side, which fasten the slats (the front half, the slats can not be removed).
- (on both sides) bend the edge of the fender to the side and unscrew the screw (twisted from bottom to top), which secures the corner to the wing.
- (on both sides) release the latches from the guide profile in the wing (take the corner and gently pull it towards you).
- with an assistant, we remove the front bumper forward (make sure not to break the wires).
- disconnect the connectors from the lighting fixtures and parking assistant.
How to remove the rear bumper
- open the trunk lid.
- we open niches in the trunk linings.
- unscrew the locking screws with your hands and remove the rear lights (you can not remove the rear lights, but when removing the bumper, the upper latches can be damaged).
- (on each side) from the bottom side, unscrew the screw (twisted from the bottom up) and release the arch cover (rear part) from the latches (pull from the bottom up).
- in the wheel arches, we unscrew four screws on each side.
- (on each side) unscrew the screw that secures the corner to the wing.
- unscrew the two screws and pull out the four spacer pistons (first you need to pull out the center pin, then the entire spacer piston) from the bottom side.
- we release the latches in the wings (gently pull the corners with a jerk towards ourselves).
- release the latches under the taillights.
- release the latches that secure the middle part.
- with the assistant, we carefully remove the bumper back (we look so as not to break the wires).
- we release the connectors of parking sensors and lighting devices (if available).
