How to remove the front bumper
- open the hood.
- we pull up two fixing strips on each side and remove the headlights (they are removed very easily).
- we pull out seven pistons (inserted from top to bottom, you need to press the pin, then pull out the piston), which attach the upper part of the front bumper.
- from the bottom side, pull out three pistons (inside the piston, you need to squeeze two tendrils, then pull out the piston).
- we turn the wheels into the inner part of the arch.
- (on the left and right sides) in the wheel arch, we unscrew four screws that attach the fenders and one that attaches the arch expander.
- we release the sides from the latches in the fenders and wheel arch extensions (you need to pry and pull on yourself).
- release the latches under the headlights.
- with the assistant, we remove the bumper forward (pay attention to the wires and hoses).
- disconnect the connectors of fog lights and sensors (if any).
- if the headlight cleaning nozzles are installed, disconnect the common hose from the pump (liquid will flow out).
How to remove the rear bumper
- open the trunk lid.
- in the trunk opening, we unscrew two shock absorbers.
- on the bottom side, we unscrew two plastic nuts.
- (on the left and right sides) in the wheel arch, we unscrew three screws that attach the fenders and one that attaches the wheel arch expander.
- (on the left and right sides) release the edge of the wheel arch expander (you don't need to remove it completely, just release the very edge).
- (on the left and right sides) release the side from the latches in the wing and wheel arch expander (you need to pry and pull on yourself).
- release the latches under the taillights.
- with the assistant, we remove the bumper back (we look so as not to break the wires).
- disconnect the connectors of electronic components.
