i have been tugin' an' pullin' fer days, and yes i took the two t55 torx bolts out from the bottom, and the sidemarkers out. i hade it off before to realign it but since then it wont come. what do ya do?

take off the subframe too. there are 4 bolts for it. i have an eta without that factory rear valance but for me there were 2 in the trunk one on each side under the carpet, and 2 underneath. one above the exhaust heat shield and one on the other side in plain sight.

are u pulling the rear bumper its self. or the shocks and everything.? some times the shocks rust into the frame. so once u get all the bolts out spray some p b blaster in the then start beating away with a 8 pound sledge.

no just the bummper but ill try to get the shocks and everything next time.
