Rear Bumper Been .. Bumped.

Featured Replies

So some fool decided to reverse into my vRS today (Bright yellow how did they not see it :mad:), luckily they had plastice bumpers to and there looks to be no damage they must of just popped in then back out. Im just wandering where the fixings are for the Rear bumper? just wanna check to make sure everything is ok!

Thanks,

Mark

To remove the bumper you'll need to remove the rear lenses from the car. Pull back the carpet inside the boot and unplug the wiring to each lens, then using an 8mm socket or spanner remove the 4 nuts that hold each lens in place. Under these lenses you will find two torx screws each side which should be removed. Next working in the wheel arches you will see four torx screws on each side that should be removed, now moving to under the car you will see that there are also two more torx screws holding the bumper on, remove these too.

Once you are sure you have removed all the torx screws from the bumper have an assistant help you remove the bumper. To do this you will need to hold one side each in the vicinity of the wheel arch and carefully but firmly pull the top of the bumper out of it's retaining clip along the edge where it meets the body work. The back of your car should then look something like this -
