Hi
There's a bolt with nut in each wheel arch.
A 10mm hex bolt behind the first aid kit, and behind/over the hyraulic roof pump on the other side of the trunk.
And there's one 10mm nut under each of the taillights.

Beware, there's an antenna fixed in the bumper that have to be disconnected as you drop the bumper.
