Rear Bumper mounting PICS

gazmanvrs · 19-05-2008, 18:45

Hi all,
How is the rear bumper the mounted. Mine has come away from what looks like the bracket. I have tried slacking all the bolts off to try and reclip but still no luck. Here is some pics.

What do you guys think.
This is the passanger side and this is what it should be like.

And this is the drivers side seems to be lower.

And close up

The sides push into a plastic grip bar.

Have a look at the PDC install guide on my Fabia website.

Looks like it's dropped a tiny bit. Nothing to be worried about. Probably someone in a car park gave it a little nudge.

I slackened the bolts off and tried pushing it in but it won't stay????

Any suggestions???

Remove it and refit it.

my rear bumper is similar and after looking can see what i think is a metal clip and on the bumper a hole where i assume the clip fits.

and pretty sure its a carpark nudge as the same side has light marks which would indicate contact

so is it simply a few screws and then pull a bit to reseat?
