Title: Bumper
Post by: Markweir12 on January 17, 2015, 12:28:56 pm

Trying my best to get this R32 bumper to clip in but no luck.

Right where the number plate goes it won't clip, just the top bumper bends

Any clues

Try abit of wd40 on it if still no joy you will have to remove the bumper and hold it from behind

i done mine by working from right side round to the left. make sure the clips are lined up properly to. otherwise wd40 and a gentle wack worked for me.
