Has anyone got a guide or give us any pointers for removing a 5g rear bumper?

Cheers

screw each side under the wheel arches.

three clips you can see when you open the boot.

get underneath and see whats attatched where. It depends on what setup you have as to whats what. some motegis have metal braces. some dont...

its easy though.

when you get everything undone you just need to pull out the sides and lift it off. there is a wire to the licence plate lamp...

I think it's similar to the front, clips at the top, screw in each arch and bolts underneath but I@m sure someone else will confirm

Cheers dudes, going to adjust the bumper bar as I have a small gap between the bumper and rear quarters

Rob its body lemonade easy. As above. If it resists you have missed a bolt.

it needs a good tug to come off. the sides are held in by mounted clips so remember to pull those out first.

Get a friend to help; they're not heavy, but they're a bit wobbly & you might scratch something.
