Is the rear bumper of your Mercedes CLK damaged? Here’s how to remove it.

Unscrew the securing bolts located at the top of the bumper using a socket wrench. Unscrew the screws located at the sides of the wheel arch liners. Detach the bumper: grip the bumper with your hands and pull it away from the bodywork (disconnect any power cables if necessary).
