anyone take off a rear bumper??


I took mine off to replace it after a little "back into" happening and the replacements been easy but i came across some weird bolts that have only a hole where a normal screw with a screwdriver head would sit. i have to transfer to the new bumper to hold the wiring for the licence plate and rear side lights...Any input on how to switch it out...ill get some pictures tomorrow

Look like a little star type of wrench would do the job?

nah there rivets i had to drill them out but it went on nice and the cars looking great again...thanks for the help anyways guys...and just for the info if your taking out your tunk panel to reach the wires for taillights/bumper just pop the inside of the plastic screws up then pull them out not to break the plastic nut on the inside...


thanks again
