Hey guys,

I am upgrading my bumper from the GT bumper to the gt500 or actually the GT/CS appearance bumper, which is the same as the gt500.

Are there any step by step directions out there to remove the rear bumper and replace it?

Thanks,

Nick

 

1. Remove the 4 pin-type retainers and the luggage compartment trim panel.
2. Remove the 4 rear bumper cover-to-bumper cover bracket screws.
3. NOTE: GT vehicles are equipped with 3 pin-type retainers.
If equipped, remove the 3 rear bumper cover pin-type retainers.
4. From inside the luggage compartment, remove the 4 rear bumper cover nuts.
To install, tighten to 5 Nm (44 lb-in).
5. Disconnect the electrical connector from inside the luggage compartment and remove the rear bumper cover.
Feed the rear bumper electrical harness through the rear of the vehicle.
6. To install, reverse the removal procedure.

This is V6 to GT bumper but it's the same concept, I believe. Scroll down for rear bumper.

 

Thanks guys.
