removing rear bumper
Hi All,
I'm sad to say that my del sol was in a shoot out while sitting in the garage. It's now got a bullet in the rear bumper.
I've tried to get the rear bumper off to locate the bullet (evidence) and make sure that nothing mechanical has been damaged but I am unable to remove the piece that the licence plate connects to. I can see two bolts on the inside but they have round nuts on them and on the outside I can't find anything to turn.
Anyone have experience removing the rear bumper before. Please email me at bumblebee1210@hotmail.com
It's a 93 and rusted so I don't want to make an insurance claim and see my insurance go up.
Thanks in advance,

You just have to grab those round nuts with a pair of pliers, and take em off. Then, take out the tail lights, all the screws that hold the bumper to it's bracket, the screws in the wheels wells, and I think there's one or two bolts under the bumper...
