Rear Bumper removal on 2004 Land Cruiser???

[srkpaco]

I have not had much luck using the search engine on this site since the update. When i try to search something I am getting lots of hits that have nothing to do with what I am looking for???

Anyway I backed into a bollard with my rear bumper just hard enough to dent the plastic. I want to puul it off and heat up and push out the dent, I know it won't be perfect my neither is my rear bumper.

How many banana job is this???

Removal of the rear bumper is super easy? Straightening it out...not so sure.

What color is your land cruiser? I have a gray rear bumper sitting in my attic.

It is black with gray bumper covers. Any photos of removal or number is bolts or screws?

Remove all four or so bolts along the rear bottom edge. Remove the rear mud flap bolts. There is one plastic clip per side just aft of the mud flaps. They don't pull straight out. You got to pull the whole bumper cover straight out rearwards to get the clips loose.

Reverse process to install. It's a one-beer job. Don't know what the conversion factor to bananas would be.
