rear bumper removal
Is the rear bumper easy to remove? I parked on the street and got bumped in the rear by someones license plate leaving 4 scrapes. Rather than give the body shop my car I thought I'd just pull the bumper if it's not too much trouble.
Any info please?  |

Its easy to remove, however for paint match reasons id leave the car with the body shop, last thing you want is color differentiation

Sent you a PM. I also second what Raptor said. Take the whole car - any good body shop (like the one I recommended in my PM) will want to measure the color in the surrounding body panels so that they can make the repair invisible.
