If I new it was that easy I would of installed it myself.You remove all the plastic clips under both rear guards, Around where your mud flaps get attachedRemove 2 x 8 or 10mm ( I cant remember what size) nuts that are located inside the boot space , under both rear light assembly’s.Remove 2 x plastic clips, located under side of bumper ( near the towbar cutout ).Then either side of the bumper bar end just pulls out, simular to the front bumper.( They are clipped to the side panel )Once you “unclip the bumper end’s “ the bumper should then just slide out.

Try not to push it inwards too much as it makes it harder to undo the screw. Once its out enough to get a hold of, you can rip the screw out with pliers too if you want.

Also the screw clips on the very top under that plastic..Remove 4 x 10mm nuts that are located inside the boot space , under both rear light assembly’s. You will need a long head ratchet piece for the 2 bolts under the inner guard as the thread in really longRemove 3 x screw clips, located under side of bumper ( near the towbar cutout ).Then either side of the bumper bar end just pulls out, simular to the front bumper.( They are clipped to the side panel )Once you “unclip the bumper end’s “ the bumper should then just slide out.followed the original post and came with a few speedhumps.. I corrected it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
