How To Remove Rear Bumper

I had to remove my hinges to fit my bumpers, you should be able to loosen the nuts on the hinges without needing to hold the screws, then hold the screws with your finger .

The other day I tried to remove my rear bumper but found that the boot hinges get in the way, however I cannot remove the hinges because the bumper gets in the way of the bolts! Am I missing something or does everyone have this problem?

 

How is the bumper removed without damaging anything? 

 

Thanks.

Just managed to sort it. I twisted the bumper towards me and managed to wiggle it out. Was just worried I was missing something. Thanks

Bumpers come off without needing to remove the boot hinges, just need to twist it gently, an extra pair of hands helps to avoid scratching paintwork.
