How do I remove it?

On the inside of the frame at the bumper, (yes, the part that get covered in road muck) you should see these...

if, still fitted, you May have to pry them off, with a screw driver or such,then pull out each side of the bumper out, till it comes off, as it has a plastic dowel like thing molded to each side, for location.
See dowel on these photos top corner of bumper , each side...

Then reposition the bumper.

If not fitted, just pull the rear bumper off, as mentioned above, and try and reposition and refit using the above new parts, or as lots of people do, don't refit the clips, as the side panels hold the bumper on fine. .

I cut off the moulded plastic dowels, and drilled through and put two M8 bolts in their place. Seems to do the job
