V6 99 reg - removal of rear bumper

Post by beccapeter » Sat May 28, 2011 11:31 pm

Hi,

I need to do some maintanence work on my rear wheel arches and wanted to know if removal of the rear bumper is a DIY job? I've also got a tow bar fitted.

Any tips on exactly how to get it removed would be really helpful - even if they "get a garage to do it".
