never got it all the way off.... anyone take one off before? not really very many write ups or build threads on here

help so i can go back iand get it haha im pretty sure i was doing it right i just need wd40 and a bigger hammer lmao

 

It's easier to remove the bumper with the bumper shocks still attached,here's how to do it.

Open the rear hatch,lift up the rear compartment lid,remove the little piece of carpet.Under the carpet is two bolts,one on each side (#11 in the pic) I think these take a 17 mm socket.(been a while since I removed one)

Next look down inside the rear wheel wells,(#16 in the pic)remove these bolts,one on each side,these are 10mm.

Remove the bolts on each side of the bumper shock(#10 in the pic)these are 12mm,after these are removed the bumper will just slide out.
