Or not found. Where did they go? It looks like someone broke them off. When? Where? What to do now?

These are some picture of it:

Pictures of the bumper back on with everything bolted back together. Do they gaps look normal?

I'm plasti-dipping the chrome so that's why it is off! But what do i do?

Are you talking about the little black clips on top of the brace?

**fusionx** · 10-09-2008 11:14 PM

everything looks fine to me but the top of your grill

**cstarky15** · 10-09-2008 11:42 PM

yes the black pieces ontop of the impact bar. There should be 2 peices that adjust the bumper!

Look at this picture, I stole it from the AW DIY for removing the bumper:

Haha sorry but that shit happened to me when I first removed my bumper (1st time), go to your dealership order 8e0 807 381 C times 2 and either bolt it on with small bolts or rivetedt it on again. That shit is used for aligning the front bumper.
Cheap stuff at the dealership.

Interesting, do you think it was the dealership techs or an outside shop that's responsible?

Your bumper looks completely fine, the gap is normal

I don't think it was the dealer. When I first got the car I had the grill replaced because it was cracked, by some guy my dad knew. He was going to remove my side markers and replace the grill. well I now have tool marks where he tried to remove the side markers and I was missing one nut that was to hold the bumper on and the grill wasn't put on all the way. "Thanks Dad." So I think it was this guy that did it. Lets just say my dad knows i was not happy and we will not ever be going back to that guy.
