Rear bumper removal

Post by kulluminati777 »

Since we have the WORST search feature ever. I couldnt find the actual removal....

I removed the two screws on the right and left of the mx3 then took off the interior plastic pieces inside the trunk and removed 4 (2 bolts right next to each other on each side of the car) Is there any thing else to remove?? This thins is NOT budging....

Yank the taillights, there are some bolts underneath them. Also CAREFULLY remove the panel beneath the hatch, and between the taillights.

No guarantees man, I haven't pulled it myself, but I do remember there being a great deal of crap concealed by those! :lol:

Good luck with it, post a guide maybe! :D

I had a bastard of a time getting unbolting the bumper from underneath. That was the toughest bit as far as I remember. There are a lot of bolts hidden around the place in that boot!

I didn't need to remove the bolts beneath the tail lights to get it off either!
