Been in Oz for about a year from the UK.
Two weeks ago got a Freelander 2 ,2009, hse td4.
Today I managed to reverse it into a log! rear bumper, passenger side is now well dented, right in the corner.
I reckon it may pop out if I can get the bumper off and apply pressure from the rear side !
Its the wife's car! I would have preferred to tell her I was having the cleaner(if we had one) than tell her I broke her car!

How do you remove the rear bumper?

Cheers
Mike

rear bumper is not too hard to remove just remove all the trimmings around it like the lights and covers you will see what bolts you need to remove

PS I have a Rear bumper bar (the steel bumper under the plastic) for sale if yours is damaged. It is brand new removed for tow bar fitting

Well after watching kids fixing their patents cars with hair driers on you tube . I had a go by heating the area with a hot air gun and pushing it back from the rear……. WOW almost good as new. I wish I had taken pictures, you could have put half a football in the dent. I did not have to take the bumper off.
