Default Bumpers and Wing Removal Guide?

Is there a guide anywhere on how to remove bumpers(front and rear) and wings for a Hawkeye Wagon? 🤔

You need to open the door to access 2 of the bolts for the wing. You also need to remove the inner wheel arch shroud and separate the wing from the bumper (clips/screws etc).

The bolt at the bottom of the wing, by the wheel arch will no doubt be covered in underseal/paint. You need to remove this before attempting to unscrew the bolt. However, be prepared for the bolt to have rusted and shear when applying any force.There is a captive nut on the back, so if the bolt snaps/can't be removed, drill it out and then fit stainless steel bolt/washer/nut.

Thanks guys, looks like there is plenty there to get me started on the front end. Is there any similar guides to the rear bumper for a wagon?
