    rear euro bumper removal

    How do I remove the rear bumper shocks? I have the bumper off and I removed the two bolt on each side that hold the shocks in but still wont come out. Are there more hidden ones...? Fast replys please, its getting dark! Thanks


    p.s There are three under the car and one on the passenger side in the trunk. 4 total. GOT THEM but still wont come apart.

    ok....look under the car on the drivers side....you can see like the metal tunned ...if you know what i mean? that the shock is inside of...there is a bolt on the... pretty sure outer side of that...and the other side its in the same spot, its under the car there are 3 bolts to remove each shock

      or leave them in there and just drill like I did for the front and rears. Use baseball bat to even out. I just pushed the bumpers in initially and baseball batted them to the right tuck.

        do you have euro bumpers?


        Well I got them off... Now I have the euro mounts in the left hole on both side. Mounted them and it seems like thats where the mounts goes...? Put on the bumper and it looks stright. Am I right? Also the rear euro bumper leaves some gaps here and there. Needs a rear valance IMO. But its euro!!! So who gives a fuck. If you could help on the mounts that would be great. THanks.

          if you have the same bracket i had then what i did was put one end in the hole, the bottom and the other top i drilled a whole into the trunk and it fit perfect...i also suggest on the sides where those ends go into the old hole for the plastic sides....drill that hole up about a 1/2 inch.......if you need more help fell free to PM me....here are all the pix i have to my rear to help you if they can


          heres how it should line up






          thats all i really have for pix...but i assure you it lines up very well

            Sounds like I have the same brackets you do! I put the 13mm bolt threw the left hole where the shock was mounted... then I drilled the 10mm right above it. I had to slot them out a bit so I can ajust them a little better. Same with the bumper mount. Im just going to slot them all for a perfect fit. Thanks for the help. I got it from here.... Thanks again!

                      Searching would have found your answer. I can assure you. You wouldnt have even needed to make this thread.

                        I can assure you I DONT GIVE A FUCK!

                        Anyways... The bumpers are used. I got them locally for $74.99!!! I took all the trim of sanded and painted them flat black. The chrome I just cleaned with some Hot Wheels for rims.

                          You dont give a fuck? I guess thats why you got practically no response to shit you could have found on your fucking own. Noob.

                          Anything with the word euro bumper in the search bar would have brought up the thread with a huge write up I did on it which I spent good time doing for assholes such as yourself. Thank you come again..

                            I had the day off today and deceided to install the rear. Here are some pics... enjoy!

                            p.s anyone have a rear valvance/skirt? or is there something from another car I can mod to fit?









                            edit* oh yea.. I smoked the tails a few weeks ago too, along with new rims/shoes. Front h&r 15mm spacers, rear h&r 20mm spacers, 15" MODA by bbs with falken 912's 205/50 (front) and 225/50 rear. Will post better pics later.
