How to remove the front and rear bumper of a Toyota Solara

-Under the hood, unscrew the screws and pull out the pins (screwed and inserted from top to bottom), which secure the upper part of the bumper and the radiator grille.
-Along the perimeter of the lower part, unscrew the screws (screwed from bottom to top).
-Turn the wheels to the left or right side, depending on which side we will disassemble first.
-In the wheel arches, unscrew the screws and pull out the pins that secure the fender liners to the bumper.
-Move the fender liners to the side and unscrew one screw on each side (screwed from bottom to top), which secure the corners to the fenders.

-with an assistant, release the corners from the latches in the wings and remove the bumper from the guides towards you.
-remove the connector from the fog lights (if any).
-remove the connector from the parking sensors (if any).
-if there are headlight washers, disconnect the hoses (to prevent the liquid from leaking onto the ground, you should prepare a special container).

Rear bumper

-open the trunk lid.
-remove the rear trim in the trunk.
-unscrew the four nuts under the trim (you will need a head with a ratchet).
-in the wheel arches, unscrew the screws that secure the fender liners and mudguards to the bumper (in order not to remove the wheels, it is more convenient to unscrew with a ratchet with a nozzle).

-with an assistant, release the bumper from the latches in the fenders and under the taillights, remove it from the guides towards you.
