Depending on the year of manufacture, the mounting points differ slightly. Please note that some of the factory fasteners were on aluminum rivets that need to be drilled. Usually, when self-installing, clips or screws are used instead of rivets. As a rule, rivets are rare, but if your bumper has never been removed, then be prepared that you will need a drill and drills.

How to remove the front bumper

- open the hood.

- under the hood, we pull out six pistons (first you need to press the center pin, then remove the piston).

- we pull out two pistons from the bottom side.

- unscrew the screws in the wheel arches.

- we release the pads under the headlights (you can not completely remove them, just release the parts closest to the radiator grille) and unscrew the two screws under them.

- in earlier versions, we unscrew the nuts and remove the headlight cleaners. In later versions, we pull out the headlight washer nozzles, remove the metal brackets and remove the covers along with the injectors (this is easier than removing the covers from the injectors).

- release the latches in the wings (pull the corners towards you, then forward).

- with the assistant we remove the bumper forward.

- disconnect the connectors from the fog lights.

 

How to remove the rear bumper

- open the trunk lid.

- in the trunk, remove the floor lining, remove the battery (you need to get access to the inside of the rear panel of the trunk).

- through the holes in the rear panel, with the cap head, we unscrew four nuts (be careful not to drop the nuts into the hidden cavity).

- we unscrew the four screws from the bottom side (twisted from the bottom up).

- unscrew the screws in the wheel arches that secure the sides.

- we release the latches in the wings (pull the corners towards ourselves and back).

- release the latches under the taillights.

- with the assistant, we remove the bumper back (pay attention to the wires).

- disconnect the connectors of the parking assistant (if any) and the antenna connectors.
