on the opposide side there is a screw/bolt where it connects to the rear quarter panel there are probably a few under the rear bar and perhaps in the boot

u really should tell us what car you have it would help.

EF civic?

There is 4 screws for the removal of your rear bumper 2 inside under the tail lights and 2 under the car, they are 12mm bolts.

Just use duct tape to hold it up until you can get the car to somebody who knows how to do it

Hey I also got rear ended on Saturday night too. Second not at fault accident this year. My reaar bumper has been knocked out of allignment. There is about a 1 inch gap between the base of the tail light and the top of the rear bumper. Will there be any major concern if water was to get into through this gap?

as far as i know... if its under ur tail light, it should be fine, it'll just drain down unless you got parking sensor which can lead to electronic problems if water faks up ur parking sensor.. What car btw?

I checked with honda service this morning and they confirmed it's just an open cavity so there wont be any problem if water was to get in.

Yes my car is a 2007 Accord euro.

I had the insurance company ring me this afternoon and the quote to fix the damage on my car would be $2500.
