Instructions for Removing the Rear Bumper

Model: Renault Clio Clio 2, MK 2 - Years 1998-2005
Part: Rear bumper

Place wheel chocks under the front wheels of the vehicle to safely lift the rear on suitable car stands; then remove the rear wheels (loosen the wheel fixing nuts before lifting the vehicle), the plastic wheel arch liners, and the Torx screws securing the bumper along the lower edge and the closure line of the bonnet. Next, remove the fixing pins for the bumper supports (two pins per side using a 10mm socket), remove the number plate light, and complete the removal of the bumper by carefully pulling it away from its housing.
