W124 rear dust sheilds
How do I remove the rear dust sheilds? Once the caliper and disc is removed, should I be looking for another screw/bolt?

the rear shields cannot be removed unless the hub is removed beforehand, which is a pretty involved job. as i recall they are held with three small socket cap screws.

What do you need to remove the shield for?

Well believe it or not, my buddies rear wheel came off. It didn't happen at a high rate of speed. It seemed as if the lugs weren't tightened properly. nevertheless the dust shield was damaged just a bit from the impact of the car hitting the ground.

Probably best to straighten the existing dust shield and leave well enough alone.

I don't think you'll have issues. Or just cut it off in the areas needed.
