Missing Bumper Fastenings?

Featured Replies

Can anyone ID the proper clips that stop the edges of rear bumper sticking out?
Had it painted & they've not put originals back on after!

Hello Richard,

I don’t think there separate clips at the locations photographed - I believe the bumper has its own plastic  protrusions which clip into corresponding slots in the arch.

Possibly broken on dismantling and not repaired via. plastic welding before spraying/refitting. 
Sounds like a trip back to whoever did the work for you.

Perhaps you could let us know how you get on.

Regards,

Gareth.

Having pulled out the bumper edge & looked at it again, i think you may be right. 

There may have been tabs that sat above the bumper lip to be held on inside by the upper rear panel, so stopping the "bumper wing" from spreading out. If so, buggered if i know how to get round that one? 

I think I might be right too! - that’s why I suggested it.

’xxxx if I know how I get round that one’-? 
 

‘Simples’ as our little standie up friends would say - take it back to whoever you paid to do it - as said.

Please let us know how you get on.
