The bumper is removed along with the grille.
Depending on the year of manufacture and type of model, the attachment points differ slightly.
-under the hood take out the caps and remove the trim over the grille.
-Unscrew the screws under the trim (spun down).
-Unscrew the screws around the perimeter at the bottom (spun up).
-turn the wheels to the left or right side, depending on which side we will disassemble first.
-in the wheel wells, Unscrew the screws and take out the caps that secure the fender liner.
-move the fender liner to the side and Unscrew two nuts on each side under the edges of the headlights (you will need a head with an extension).
-with an assistant, tear off the corners from the latches in the wings and pull the bumper off the guides towards you (when removing, pay attention to the studs at the corners of the headlights so as not to scratch the paint on the wings).
-remove the connector from the parking sensors.
-remove the connector from the fog lights (if any).
- Disconnect the headlight washer hoses. To prevent liquid from leaking to the ground, you need to prepare a suitable container or plug.
-remove connectors from additional electrical equipment (depending on the configuration of the car).
Rear bumper
-in the trunk, remove the side trim (you need to access the back of the rear lights).
-under the rear lights, Unscrew three nuts on each side in the wings and one closer to the opening of the trunk.
-Unscrew the screws in the wheel arches that secure the fender liner (in order not to remove the wheels it is more convenient to unscrew with a ratchet with a nozzle).
-Unscrew the screws around the perimeter at the bottom (spun up).
-with an assistant, we release the bumper from the latches in the wings and pull it off the guides towards ourselves (care should be taken not to scratch the paint on the wings).
-remove the connector from the parking sensors.
-remove connectors from additional electrical equipment (depending on the configuration of the car).
