Hi everyone,

anybody who knows of an easy method of reattaching the rubber thingy on each side of the rear bumber? it looks like the bumber is made from an upper and lower part, with these 2 pieces of rubber in between round the corners.. i would rather not take the whole thing apart to reattach it (the right one has come off in a small bump-n-run, but nothing seems to be broken)..

regards...

its only clipped in the lower bit, pop it off and you can attaxched it properly from behind, that will stop it slidign back and forth as well.

right ... i know the trim is only attached to the bottom part.. so what u're saying is, unclip bottom part, attach trim properly, then clip bottom part back on!?

bottom part clips are reached from underneath/inside bumper, i presume..
