Title: Lower Rear Bumper Removal on Ed30
Post by: Saint Steve on May 25, 2010, 07:01:47 pm
Has anyone done this , is it just a couple of screws in each wheel arch, and 3-4 underneath the bumper??? or is there more to it?

Cheers

is this just the lower valance your taking off?

if so, there is one screw in each arch. then about 8 screws underneath, or there should be! lol

then its pulling it off the bumper which is the hardest part. those clips will be very tight that hold the two together.

Not sure if the ed30 bumper splits in two, or the whole thing comes off in one peice :scared:

Gonna have a look in the manuals section here.

Anyone else done a R32 exhaust conversion with an Ed30 rear end may know how??
