How to remove the bumper of the Citroen C3

Model: Citroen C3 FC, FN - Years 2002-2009
Part: Rear bumper

Removing a rear bumper becomes a necessary operation not only in case of replacing it but also if you want to replace the vehicle's crossbeam. Today we will show you how to perform this operation on a Citroen C3 model mk1. We start by removing the lower clips that protect the bumper screws and then we unscrew the screws. We open the trunk and remove the headlights, to do this we remove the side interior carpet and unscrew the screws, in order to remove the headlight. We unscrew the side screws of the bumper and the upper ones. We remove the bumper and disconnect the connector. To remove the crossbeam you will have to unscrew the side nuts and pull forcefully outwards. Before inserting the new crossbeam, you will have to clean the parts damaged by rust. We mount the crossbeam by tightening the nuts. We mount the bumper and headlights to complete the operation.
