In this tutorial, we will see how to remove the rear bumper on the Volkswagen Tiguan, a very simple operation. First, we open the trunk hatch, then we remove the panels located behind the taillights, unscrew the white plastic bolts, disconnect the connectors, and separate the taillights from the body.

Next, we go underneath the vehicle, unscrew the screws of the two plastic trims, and detach them from the wheel arch. At this point, we just need to unscrew all the remaining indicated bolts, separate the bumper from the frame, and install the replacement part by following the reverse procedure.
