FIG. 1 is a front elevational view of a vehicle rear bumper;

FIG. 2 is a right side elevational view of the vehicle rear bumper;

FIG. 3 is a left side elevational view of the vehicle rear bumper;

The vehicle rear bumper is styled independently of adjacent vehicle panels. To the extent that any feature lines are illustrated, they are intended to illustrate the crest and valley of the feature and are not necessarily sharp bends in the part. Views are orthogonal projections. The various views are not necessarily to scale in order to better illustrate the design. The drawings were generated using Computer Aided Design tools. Highlights and shading were added to the drawings to better illustrate the three-dimensional features of the part and do not designate color.
