    Front reflective markers fell off....

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Well I was walking back to my car from a good lunch, when I noticed one of my front bumper reflectors was hanging lop-sided from it's cutout in the bumper. I didn't know this, but adhesive backing is what holds the markers bracket in place. It seems sand and grit from the winter driving wore away at the adhesive. My question is: Has anyone else had this happen to them? and is there a quick fix or do I need to bring her into the dealer? Thanks in advance. I'll get pics up this afternoon to show you what im talking about.



    BTW, now the other one is getting quite loose as well.... =/

    I'm an 05.5. The actual reflector is held on by a clip, its the reflector's bracket thats held on by adhesive backing. You can see the greyish strips on the top and bottom.

    what a crappy design, maybe it's just a 05.5 first year B7 problem?

    I could be wrong, but it just looks like 3M double-sided tape. If so, it should be an easy fix.

    BTW, who cut your clearbra?

    I might be wrong but they look like they're blacked out which suggests aftermarket stuff?
