Hi folks! Anyone knows how to remove rear bumper?! I already found a post about the removal of a front bumper, but I also need same advice for rear...I own a 3.0 si 2008. Thanks in advance!

Similar process to the front:

Remove the fixings along the lower edge
Remove the clips under the rear wheel arches
detach clamps from where it joins the rear quarter panels
Pull it backward from the car taking care to disconnect the FM aerial that runs across left to right

Allow yourself a good 10 minutes to undo 5 self rapping bolts underneath, release the pins under each arch and unclip the corner fixings :)

Just remember the fm aerial and rear PFC harness as you pull the bumper away.
