Alright as noob as it is and frustrating as it is, short of the obvious bolts and gm plastic clips and the 2 wheel well screws, what the hell is holding the rear bumper on??? Tryin to take mine off today to put the new one on, and short of comparing the 2 hole wise the damn thing won't come off as if something else is holding it lol so what the hell??? lol Quick response preferred, gotta work tonight and really dont wanna put it back together unsuccessful lol

open the trunk and there are 2 bolts behind the carpet on each side. some misc bolts in the wheel well and under the car the stock bumper has tabs that have push pins. other than that, thats it.

Filler panel under the tail lights??? or are those the bolts mentioned above??

If you are replacing it....Just keep on a-ripping, you'll git it off eventually...

you got all the bolts. after all of those are removed, it should still feel like the bumper is attached right below the quarter panels. you'll need to pull carefully as there are small "tabs" the stick up from the brackets mounted on the body through the top edge of the bumper. pull on the bumper from the wheel well area outwards and you should see what i'm talking about.
