How to Remove a Rear Bumper Bar From a Toyota Cressida

How to Remove a Rear Bumper Bar From a Toyota Cressida

There are many reasons why you may need to remove the rear bumper on your Toyota Cressida. It is possible that your bumper has been damaged in an accident or that you just want to upgrade to a fancy one. Fortunately, this is a job you can do right at home with very little mechanical ability or experience. Be ready to spend about an hour to remove your bumper. You just need to purchase a few tools that can be found at any hardware store.

Instructions

    1

    Park your vehicle in a comfortable workspace and set your parking brake.

    2

    Open the trunk of your car using the ignition key. Use the Phillips screwdriver to remove the screws on the inside of the trunk where the plastic cover hides the bumper bolts.

    3

    Remove the four bolts that secure the bumper using a socket wrench.

    4

    Remove the screws that hold part of the bumper from the underside of the rear wheel fender wells. These screws are located near the rear bumper.

    5

    Use a flat-head screwdriver to pry apart the rivets that hold the plastic part of the rear bumper to the metal part.

    6

    Pull off the rear bumper using your hands. It may take a little force to pull it off if it has any dirt or grime in the connection areas.
