Im about to take the rear bumper off my 93WRX but have no idea how. Just woundering if anybody has done this before and has any tips for me.

Thanks in advance,

Tony.

Theres about 4 or 6 17mm bolts if you lay on your back and look up by the exhaust... they are there and the same place on the opposite side... then there are a couple of 10 /11mm bolts in the wheel arches If I remember correctly...

Easy to do... Either that or reverse into a tree or something similar!

You were right, dead easy. Six fairly big bolts near the tow hook and exhaust hanger, two smaller ones underneath near the arches then two more in each arch.

Job done

Cheers,

Tony.
