unbolt the 2 screws above where the mud flaps go... and then get under the car and unbolt the bolts where to the 2 side tow hooks are and then pull the bumper straight off with the support
and spray some pb blaster on the bolts and screws if u don't want them striped..

Good advice. I went yesterday and tried and I had the same result. The stripped screws hold the plastic to the rear core support. If you remove the 4 14mm bolts from under the car the entire assembly slides out with ease. You need to remove the phillips screws from the wheel well but otherwise its good to go.
yeah i learned that with my 3gee ... and of course at the time didn't know there was another way to remove it ... so i tied the bumper to something in the garage and drove forward and ripped all those top screws out with my bumper cover LOL.... good thing the bumper was cracked and trashed anyway lol

ya where the car was crashed backward into a tree...my bumper is prolly trashed too. not to mention the bumper cover looks like hell. its a good thing i have a doner car. so you just unbolt the whole bumper???

yep the entire assembly with the core support comes out at the same time. Its a sweet system
