Default Removing Exhaust Tips/Bumper

Anyone here know how to remove the exhaust tips or the lower plastic trim that holds the exhaust tips? Not sure if I have to drop the entire rear bumper.. I hope not

There are instructions on removing the bumper in the Akrapovic exhaust system installation PDF. Here’s where you can download the file:

I would also like to get the tips off. For cleaning and in summer I want to ride the chrome ones with silver wheels and in winter the black ones with black wheels. Do I have to take the whole bumper off to disconnect them or can it be done while on the car?

Ahh thank you for that! That helps tremendously.

Unfortunately, it looks like the bumpers got to come off.. If you take a look at the akropovic install guide on page 50/56 F39, there are 3 screws that hold the tips in place. And it looks like the tips slide out the back because the screw flanges would prevent them from coming out forward.
