Default Bumper

I don't think it is possible to separate the the painted bit from the grey plastic bit, there for it is a complete unit.

Question

Are you talking about the black upper part of the bumper? If so, then yes, these parts can be separated. The colour coded lower section of the bumper is clipped into the upper black section and you need to use a wide flat head screwdriver to tease the clips back through the openings on the black upper section. It's awkward but do-able. I can post photos up tomorrow if this is exactly what you were asking about in your first post?

Cheers Bren

OK, NON t5 bumper with no front fog's is ONE piece -1994 obd1, if it's With fog holes and obd2 94- they are seperate.

ALL rear bumper's are complete and you cannot seperate them.
