To remove the rear bumper from the Mazda CX-3, follow these steps: Open the tailgate and locate the bumper attachments. There are usually several bolts or screws attached to the inner edge of the tailgate that secure the rear bumper to the body.

These will be visible once the tailgate is opened. Remove the screws or bolts that hold the rear bumper in place.

Use a screwdriver or appropriate spanner to completely unscrew the screws or bolts. Make sure to keep them in a safe place to avoid losing them.

Carefully inspect the sides of the rear bumper, near the wheel arches. You may find additional clips or bolts that need to be removed to free the rear bumper.

Also, check underneath the bumper for other fastening points. Once all fastening points have been removed, you can proceed to take off the rear bumper.

Be careful while removing it to avoid damaging the paint or components of the bumper.
