Removing rear bumper on MKIV

[Madmax]

Hi guys,

I want to remove the bumper on an MKIV so i can touch up some little knicks as it's awkward doing it whilst it's on the car.
Is this a hard/easy job? Only managed to spot 2 bolts & that's it, hope i don't have to remove half the car lol.

Cheers.

its a bit of a nightmare but can be done firstly remove the rear lights by the x3 8mm nuts there is a sneaky couple behind the carpet on both sides where it meets the rear quater (swearing may be required) 

After taking the lights out you will find 2x 30torx on either side remove them and the 2 underneath and then down the sides holding the wing liner to the bumper you will see 4x 25 torx bolts pretty sure thats it that holds them then its just a simple case of pulling on 1 side and it should pop off disconnect number plate lights and jobs a gooden

Thanks mate, it's only to touch-up some little chips so do you think it's worth taking it off then?
Cheers for the help, i can see myself swearing.
