| | Raise the car. Measure out and draw a horizontal line 6 mm (1/4") under the top edge of the grooves, on the inside of the rear bumper cover. Draw a vertical line (A and B) 10 mm (3/8") in towards the centre of each side from groove 3 and 4. Cut/saw along the inside of groove 2 and line A up to the line which was drawn 6 mm (1/4") under the top edge of the grooves. Repeat this between groove 5 and line B. Remove the shadowed areas by cutting/sawing between the cuts along the horizontal line, so that two parallel slits are formed in the bumper cover. Cut away the remaining pieces of groove 3 and 4 level with the bumper. Smooth off all edges with a file.
