rear bumper removal... help

Post by turflayer »

has anyone taken off the rear bumper on a D9 saloon before.... im abit stuck (due to shitty french design)

i think ive removed all the bolts that are holding it on apart from the ones attaching the bumper to the wheel arch pannel underneath the black wheel arch trim.... i just can get them off. its in a really dificult place, undernether the bottom lip of the bumper.

whats holding them on????... of what i can see its some kind of screw/bolt and a square of black plactic.

how do you get them off and what tools do i need??

cheers,

I dunno about saloons but there's a bolt inside the rear wing on an estates, you have to take the panels off the inside and it's below the air vent.
