Default 996 rear bumper cover removal

Hello!

New to the forum. Had my 2002 996 since March 2012.

I made this video while installing my muffler bypass.
(couldn't find any bumper cover removal vids on youtube so I made one)

It's my buddy doing the work and me holding the camera (iPhone 4s)

Hey! Thanks for doing that. I've been thinking of removing that cover to straighten my heat shields, but had not gotten around to figuring out how to do it.

This saves me scratching my had for sure.

I find it easier to reinstall the rear bumper and get the upper edges of the bumper cover aligned properly if the tail lights are also removed, especially if doing so alone.
