fitting gti rear valance?

(1/2) > >>

ukshaun:
any tips on fitting the rear valance, mines half on atm but i cant get the clips to push in as theres too much free play.

ive tried just wacking it but its not happening.

do i have to take the rear bumper off?

Little_Dave:
There's a few videos on you tube showing how its done for removal but most people tend to suggest taking off the whole bumper and joining the 2 halves and then re fitting  :drinking:

ukshaun:
cheers i was thinking i would need to do this

skard:
No need to remove whole bumper. Start at one end and clip it in one by one.
When you get to the middle you'll need to put your hand/fingertips in behind the upper bumper from underneath to offer some resistance.

vRS_Pagey:
I completely removed mine and fitted to 2 halves in the comfort of my garage, reaching up would have posed a problem for my ham fists, getting between the bumper and the rear armature!!

The entire job took less than half an hour.  :happy2:
