Default Rear Bumper Removal

I just bought a GMG Sport Muffler center section and I need to remove the rear bumper.
The guys at GMG said I didn't need to , but I don't see how to do the install without removing the bumper.
Unlike Sharkwerks they don't supply DYI instructions on how to remove the bumper,so if anybody can help me with some basic instructions I would appreciate it.
Even if you could e-mail the bumper removal instructions via a PM that would be great.
Thanks in advance .

If you search I am sure you can find a DIY with pictures. but I do have the sharkwerks instructions taking the bumper off is easy. I hope Alex does not get mad for me posting. Let me give him a plug, I have the sharkwerks bypass and the upgraded tips. I love it and so have everyone who has ever heard my car. Going under the Goodyear bridge at mid Ohio coming out of the pits is a sound to behold.

I installed the Shark Werks bypass last week. It sounds sick. Like it should have from the factory. The install was easy. Alex's DIY instructions were spot on.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my request.

Got the bumper off and got the system installed.Sounds great and I'm sure the Sharkwerks system is every bit as good.It was a toss up for me,but I happen to have something in common with Fabrece @ GMG as we both grew up in Jersey City,N.J.No other reason.

thanks to you guys at Sharkwerks.You are really a decent bunch.Will keep you in mind as I continue to develop the car.

Hi Tom, thanks for the kind words and I'm sure you'll be happy and no worries on the instructions. Over the past couple of years Dan/James have watered down the "English" words to reflect a more US-Flavor so hopefully they're helpful
