NE1 know how to take off 1999 gv rear bumper?

[gopher]

i need to take it off for mounting splash plates and do some anti rust/painting work. and also try to figure out whether there are any nuts behind for the bolts on gas tank protector.

from the service manual, it only shows bolts location but no remove steps. i feel it is a little bit tough as there are some clips and double side stickers might be involved.

thanks a lot!

Thanks Max I just got into a fender bender last night and well I need to pretty much replace the front bumper and accessories.

Lady stopped in the lane of traffic and did not signal for a right hand turn she slammed on her brakes because a couple kids ran in front of her and I slammed on my brakes but not soon enough... not sure if my body is sore from working out that night or the after effects of the collision. Bright side is atleast the airbags didn't deploy.

Just curious is the Front bumper a weld on or bolt on application?

[Max]

As far as I can determine, strictly bolt on.

Body shop said it was weld on and that they had to charge me extra to paint over the welds to prevent rust? .... Hmmm
