It's hard to imagine a car without bumpers. It doesn’t matter what kind of car we are talking about: a slender sedan or a powerful crossover. This part of automotive design is present in absolutely any car. Both the front and rear bumpers of the car are, of course, the very parts that absorb all the damage. In fact, this is what it is needed for, its purpose is to prevent more serious damage to the car body, in particular its parts such as the front fender, hood, as well as injuries to the driver and passengers. This is why the bumper often fails, cracks appear, and with more severe damage you may simply lose part of this important part. And it doesn’t matter whether you are replacing the product or repairing it, you will have to remove it one way or another. Also, there is no way to do without dismantling when it is necessary to replace or install fog lights or parking sensors.

Chevrolet Lacetti

In general, the ability to remove the front bumper will certainly be useful to you, so let's figure out how to do this on our car. This instruction is intended for the Chevrolet Lacetti sedan form factor, but it is also suitable for hatchback and station wagon cars.

You can also familiarize yourself with information like the rear bumper of the Chevrolet Lacetti.

Sequencing

In order to perform dismantling efficiently and not break anything, it is important to strictly adhere to a certain sequence of work. Removing the driver's door trim of the Lacetti step by step:

1. Without using tools, remove the decorative corner on the door, which is attached to it with two latches, by hand.
2. Remove the window regulator handle if it is mechanical and not electric. To do this, insert a screwdriver into the special groove of the handle, with which it moves away from the thrust ring. Then, using a thin screwdriver, disassemble the stopper that holds the handle.
3. Unscrew the screw and remove the door handle.
4. If the window regulator is electric, then before removing the handle, disconnect the electrical wire block.
5. Unscrew the two screws that are located at the bottom - one on the left, the other on the right.
6. Using a screwdriver, pre-wrapped with a rag or tape to prevent scratches, unclip the 5 latches that hold the casing around the perimeter. To do this, slide a screwdriver under each latch and slightly pull the panel away from the door.
7. Remove the door handle trim. To do this, you need to bend the trim a little, stick one hand in, and bend the ears of the lining. With the other hand, use a screwdriver to pull out the cover from the outside.
8. Remove the trim by first moving it up a little.

After dismantling, you can begin replacing or repairing the lock or door lock drive, window lift mechanism, installing speakers, etc.

In most cases, drivers disassemble, reupholster or tune the door card. Tools, materials necessary for self-repair:

• a stationery or construction knife with a sharp blade;
• sharp scissors;
• roller for smoothing the material;
• pencil for outlining a layout made from a new material;
• glue of different brands, depending on the material;
• sanding paper or brush to clean the casing from old material;
• household or construction hair dryer;
• degreaser.

The materials are: velor, Alcantara, artificial suede, leather substitute, genuine leather. It is recommended to use foam rubber with a thickness of three to six millimeters as a backing. Work algorithm for reupholstering door trim:

1. Cleaning the surface of old material. To do this, use sanding paper or a stiff brush.
2. The surface is wiped with a cloth and degreaser.
3. Preparation of new material. The new material is superimposed on the removed old one, outlined and cut according to the old pattern. In this case, it is necessary to leave a margin of 2-3 centimeters at the edges. The same is done with the foam rubber backing.
4. Bonding new material to the door card. The surface on which the new material will be glued and the underside of the new material are first cleaned with fine sandpaper for better adhesion.
5. Applying glue to the cleaned surface, you need to let it dry slightly for better adhesion.
6. Heating the surfaces to be glued with a hairdryer, they need to be applied to each other and carefully smoothed with your hand or a roller.

If the foam backing is changed, it is cut out and glued to the door card. At the final stage, the necessary standard holes are cut in the door card for mounting the speaker of the speaker system, handles, and armrests.

HOOD

REPAIR PROCEDURE

1. Remove the relevant parts.
2. Remove the hood.

Prepare a new hood.

Apply paint. CAUTION When applying paints, provide ventilation. Most paints and varnishes contain substances that are harmful if inhaled or swallowed. Read the label before opening a container of paint material. Avoid contact with skin

When painting, use an approved respirator, gloves, eye protection and appropriate clothing. Paint and varnish materials are flammable. Store them in a safe place, away from sparks and fire, and do not smoke.

Pre-install the hood.

1. Fully tighten the fasteners.
2. Install the appropriate parts.
3. Check and adjustment.
   Check clearances and level differences.
4. Check the opening and closing of the hood latch.

Bumper Features

Manufacturers have placed the main emphasis on decorating the car with a bumper; it is an independent and quite expressive detail. Made from various plastics. Their diversity is provided by different additives, which allows you to make a large number of different shapes and match the sports style. The rear element also has a rather stylish look. You can find out how to remove the Camry v50 rear bumper later in the article.

As a result of the use of plastic, creation is easier, but the protective role is practically absent. To protect against chips and preserve paint, the bumpers of Toyota V40 and 50 are equipped with a special protective tape made of rubber and shaped like a skirt. The protective strips are located at the bottom.

The bumper has edges curved towards the top, which increases the aerodynamics of the car; the stiffening ribs present have an important property of a spoiler. Since the latest versions of Toyota, all efforts have been aimed at increasing aerodynamics, as well as design

Let's figure out how to remove the front bumper of Camry 40 and 50.

Removing and installing the rear body kit

Removing the Renault Duster rear bumper is carried out in the following order:

1. The license plate light bulb and rear lights are removed. The car is first de-energized by disconnecting the terminal from the battery.
2. Remove the four screws located at the top of the buffer. To access them, you need to open the trunk lid.
3. In each fender liner, the screws that secure the body kit are removed, and the mudguards are dismantled using this action.
4. Next you have to remove the body kit from the car body. The process begins with the left and right sidewalls, since there the latches have the least resistance.
5. Unclip the body kit fasteners in the center and finally remove the bumper. Using a flat-tip screwdriver, unclip the clips and remove the pins.
6. Installation of the body part is carried out in the reverse order of removal.

Replacing a Renault Duster body kit is an operation that can be performed by any driver. To implement this, you will need to stock up on a set of Topx wrench heads, screwdrivers, and WD40 solution. It is recommended to carry out the work together with a partner, this way you can carefully and quickly dismantle and install the body kit.

We recommend: Volume of oils and fuel fluids Renault Sandero

Dismantling process

Removing the front buffer on a Lacetti requires time, a set of tools and another pair of hands (although you can do the process yourself). So, when everything is assembled, you can start working:

1. It is recommended to disconnect the terminal from the battery, especially for cars with fog lights.

2. We move on to the fender liners, the fastening of which must be unscrewed.
3. It is also necessary to remove the lower plastic protection to the bumper.
4. Having gained access to the inside of the bumper, you can unscrew the fastening screws.
5. Next you need to remove the radiator grille.

6. You will need to remove the headlights.

7. Remove the buffer from the side latches.
8. If there are fog lights in the buffer, they need to be removed.
9. Take the bumper in the center from below and pull it first up and then towards you. If the process is done according to the instructions, then the protective buffer should be removed without problems.
10. Assembly is carried out in reverse order.

Chevrolet Lacetti 5D RHCP MLGA › Logbook › Installing an absorbent element in the front bumper.

The front bumper had a "drop lip". The previous owner had an accident and broke the right headlight; the bumper was glued together, but they either forgot to put in the absorbent element (which is most likely) or it shattered into complete dust (which is unlikely).

Unfortunately, I didn’t take a photo as it was, but the gap was noticeable to the naked eye even when inspecting the car: I told the owner, she immediately confessed - yes, she touched it with her face, on the right side, the headlight needed to be replaced, the bumper was glued.

I really wanted to insert it there, because an empty bumper is guaranteed to shatter into trash, and, in fact, the bumper absorber is needed for this purpose, to absorb the impact energy by deformation.

I looked at what is issued in the EPC, p/n 96545495. There are some misunderstandings there, because according to the VIN for the hatch, the picture shows a bumper for the sedan, the question naturally arises as to whether the remaining spare parts are correct or not. I dealt with this issue here (About the front bumper and absorber. Three questions for experts). There are pictures there too.

1100 rubles for a piece of polystyrene foam seemed too much. I looked at drom.ru, but the prices for used ones from disassembly were even more expensive (and this does not include delivery). I even found a used bumper absorber in the glorious city of Arzamas for a ridiculous 400 rubles, but delivery from there cost 700 rubles, which was what it was, and “if it turns out to be that, maybe that’s what it is.” It was a concrete fact. The green toad sympathetically unclenched his fingers and left to ferment amid a sudden attack of depression.

I had to order the original. How long or short, he arrived.

It feels more slippery to the touch, most likely stamped polyethylene foam. It is difficult to do this on your own.

And since today was extremely (I still hope!) warm (+13), and also a day off, it was decided not to postpone it until winter.

I took few photographs. The phone was very discharged. We do the steps according to any Murzilka, I had “The Third Rome” at hand, which I periodically peeked at, but I modernized a few things to speed up the process:

I may have some mistakes because the service people were messing around here, and these guys like to use creativity at the “assemble in reverse order” stage. Non-original fasteners? “Well, he’s holding it!”

0. We will need to remove one of the fender liners, no matter which one - the access is the same. It is better to set the steering wheel to the middle position.1. Loosen the nuts on the selected wheel. From this side we will install the absorbing element.2. Let's jack up the front part. We hang up the wheels. loosen the wheel and reset it.3. We unscrew 4 screws (cross PH2) and remove the decorative radiator grille by pulling towards ourselves. 4. Remove and move the headlights to the side (3 bolts by 10). Both. Because there are clips under the headlights that hold the bumper. They both need to be weakened. By the way, it is quite easy to break the clips.5. And since everything is accessible, remove the connector from the PTF.6 headlight. On the selected side, remove the mudguard, in my case, three long hex screws (or M8 or M10)7. On the chosen (Choosen One) side we begin to pull off the locker. Bolts-screws with a press washer on M7 and nuts on M10 (I don’t understand at this point the designers who, for some bullshit, force the use of different tools for dismantling. Between the bolt-screw and the nut is huge, I would even say , generic difference, they cannot be confused). The fender liner is held in a large number of places and they all need to be turned out. Including underneath the bumper.

By the way, if you have the opportunity to knock off the dirt with some kind of Karcher, do it. Life will become easier, life will become more fun.

7. For these two screws, I would say a special “thank you” to the Lacetti designers.

I removed the front bumper on a Hyundai avante(elantra) XD - no problems at all. Somehow everything happened quickly. Mitsubishi. their school. However, these are lyrics.

second of attention: 8. Pistons or screws from the bottom of the amplifier.

Changing the bumper on a sedan or station wagon: detailed instructions

Due to design features, the rear bumper on the Lacetti sedan and station wagon is fixed in an identical way. Removing the part will take about an hour and will require a set of wrenches, a set of screwdrivers and a jack. The removal procedure is as follows:

1. First, we unscrew 5 screws on each side of the bumper, then use a wrench to unscrew the bolts securing the mudguards and fender liners, and remove the components;
2. Next, you need to unscrew 1 screw at the corners of the bumpers above the fender liner, and also unscrew the screws located at the bottom of the rubber seal;
3. Now we remove the plastic trim between the bumper and the trunk: the part is attached to 2 plastic pistons on the sides and 4 latches around the perimeter - we unclip all the latches with a slotted screwdriver;
4. Then we remove the boots of the car and remove the bumper. The part is also pulled out by moving towards you in a straight plane;
5. After dismantling, unscrew the reinforcing beam.

Assembling or installing a new spare part is carried out in the reverse order. During assembly, it is necessary to correctly place the bumper in the body grooves - otherwise dust and moisture will enter the structure through the gaps, which will lead to rapid corrosion of the body.

Tuning

There are two categories of people - those who approve of changing the appearance of the car and those who do not approve. The latter are usually in the minority. The rear bumper of the Chevrolet Lacetti station wagon has several main types of tuning. Conventionally, let's divide them like this:

• protective;
• practical;
• sports;
• change of style.

Now let's look at the tuning options in more detail.

Protective

This includes special linings that are installed on the rear bumper itself. They have only one function - to protect the bumper from mechanical damage and scratches received during constant use of the trunk and transportation of goods. The second task is to increase impact resistance. For example, if something is dropped on it. It will not save you from road accident damage.

The overlays are attached to a special sketch. We can say that in the event of an excessively strong impact, the bumper will burst, but the linings, most likely, will not be damaged. The fact is that they are made of high quality metal.

How much do overlays cost? Approximately, a little less than half the price that is asked for the bumper. But their use will increase the service life and protect the appearance from damage, scratches, and abrasions. Is it worth it? According to car service specialists, yes.

Practical

Practical auto tuning involves converting a Chevrolet Lacetti station wagon into a more adapted car. As a rule, it is complex and rapids. What does this give? Changing the parameters of the chassis and, in particular, the tires. It becomes possible not only to use a different wheel height, their profile, but also to adjust the ground clearance. This move is needed not only for visual effect, but also has a practical purpose.

What does ride height provide? It directly affects:

• controllability;
• aerodynamics;
• permeability;
• sustainability.

To drive at serious speeds, a minimum level is required. Downforce creates better traction, increased agility and stability. If the ground clearance is high enough, it helps to avoid damage when driving on dirt roads and in rural areas.

It turns out to be a kind of mini-jeep. We also need to take into account the running gear. While the body itself may not touch the road surface during pit jumps, other components may well. Therefore, you should take the car’s height settings seriously and count on the conditions in which the Chevrolet Lacetti station wagon and its capabilities will be used. After all, the car was originally created for city driving.

Sports

Sports modification is not only about appearance. Here's what happens when you create a real sports car:

• replacement and strengthening of power units;
• lightening the weight of the car;
• body reinforcement;
• increasing security measures;
• changing the chassis;
• improvement of aerodynamic characteristics.

Changing the style

Many drivers want to stand out from others. When there is not enough money for a complete tuning, they limit themselves to a simple alteration of the appearance. This gives the car a sporty design. In fact, this does not affect the car's performance in any way. The rear bumper is no less important than the front or hood. The station wagon becomes much more aggressive and original in appearance. The cost, compared to the factory model, is slightly higher. But real sports options are quite expensive.

Change style

The rear bumper, like the front bumper, is the very first part of the car to absorb impacts and damage impulses. Security and safety. his destiny. However, that's not all.

Frequent reasons for replacing the Chevrolet Lacetti rear bumper are the following:

• damage as a result of an accident;
• damage to transported goods;
• damage caused by frequent use of the chest;
• change the style of the car.
