dare I say it, are u installing altezzas? if so you need to use a BFH to break them in before you install them.

remove the rear trunk plastic and you can figure out the rest.

Try opening the hatch first before ripping your bumper off. If this is for altezzas run them over and walk away. altezzas

Remove 12mm trunk bar, rip off the one-piece center trunk cover, this will reveal your rear lights. Then rip off the left and right side interior panels to gain full access to the lights.
