As requested I've written an illustrated guide on how to take off the Rear Bumper Cover.

Alas I cannot get a direct upload of a PDF to work (I have spoken to an Admin too). Therefore the path of least resistance is to link to a file sharing site (ad driven... sorry!).

I'm happy to answer any follow-up questions about this of course, and if anyone spots an error/omission then speak up!

How To remove the Rear Bumper Cover on a Lexus SC430.pdf

 

This is just brilliant Scarletti. Must have taken you longer to do the DIY than the job itself, LOL. Saved it in iBooks and I will be using it in the future,.

Thanks for taking the time and posting a superb DIY.

Best regards
Steve

 

Great job Scarletti.

 

Excellent how to Scarletti. Thank you, that is going to be a big help.

Cheers

Wow great write up - I got stuck on step 10 when I replaced my corner lights and just worked with the bumper loose in the corners. Thanks for this doc.

 

ah, so close to get to step 10 out of 11 and throw in the towel. Oh well, hope you didn't lose too much skin trying to get to the corner reflectors from underneath/side.

 

No not too much - it was before you wrote the guide. After removing all the bolts I didnt figure out what it was stuck on. When I want to do the sensors I should be ready with the guide now.

 

Thank you ! Scarletti. Very Helpful.

 

thank you for this…

 

Nice job! Thanks for sharing. 👍

 

Saved it for a rainy day.

 

the attachment doesnt work is there a jpeg image version?

 

Anyone have a copy of this still?

 

I don't have that particular DYI but I do have these three documents.

 

If anyone saved this diy file and still has it could you re-post it or send it to me via PM? Thanks
