Rear bumper mounts

by Phill » Fri Jul 19, 2013 7:11 pm

I removed the rear bumper on the ecotech today and found the 4 bumper mounts are fooked. Can you still get new ones ? and from who ?. Thanks.

there wasn't much left of the 2 at the back of the bumper to get a picture.

So is it just the screws at the arch that will keep them on ? I plan to put it on the V6 as it's in better condition til i can get a respray. I'm going to be removing the front bumper and swap that to. What should i expect when taking the front off ?. Any advice on removal and refit would be much appreciated. :)

The 2 plastic studs under the bumper are there but the brackets crumpled when i touched them. I think i will need to make 2 brackets for the studs.
