General Rear bumper

Can anyone get rear bumper removal instructions as i have a rear guard to fit.

Without looking I'd imagining there are fixings on the top where the doors shut, inside the wheel arches, possibly underneath, and you'll probs have to take the rear lights out to get to fixings.

Just a guess though. Can't see it being too difficult.

Cant you fit the guard with the bumper in situ?

I had to loosen/ partly remove both rear arch liner to get access to a couple of hidden
screws that are covered up by them.

Its the same as the front one in that there are studs on the top, you have to mark and drill holes in the bumper to accept these studs [which are hollow] and then rivnuts go in from behind.
i could do the front one without removing the bumper as theres shed loads of room.

Fair enough. Does maybe sound easier to do with the bumper off!

Well make sure you take lots of pics when you remove it for a little 'how to'! Looking forward to seeing it on as the front one looks cool on your van!

I've had mixed views on the front guard, some people i've met hate it, but i think
it looks the dogs nuts as it does brake up the black abit, as will the back.
One of my mates suggested to paint the guard white along with the silver part on the top of the bumper, and then run the italian strips through it, what do you think ?, i sort of like the idea.

Not sure why fiat paint the top of the bumpers silver. Citroen and Peugeot colour code that bit. Maybe you should have the top of the bumper painted white and leave the guard silver. Front and back guards would match then.

You need to get fog lights!!



I'm quite liking completely black bumpers. I know this is the qubo bumper but you get the idea..



i think that the van bumpers look really wrong colour coded



If you want to do the italian flag you could always do it in the badge?
