Drilling front bumper reenforcement

[ned]

Is it OK to drill 2 holes in the front bumper reenforcement thing, I asked because I need to drill 2 X 16mm holes (1 each side) to fit the headlight washer jets into (the bit that sits under the bumper) mucho grassyarse. N

I need to stick the bottom of these into the metal bit,

A reduced shank you say I have a 16mm metal hole cutter that goes on a arbor thingy if that makes sense. N

[bigjohnthomas]

fancy engineering equipment you have then
just drill it
it will be alright
nothing to worry about
all is good
perfect

[ned]

that all I needed, quality engineering advise I was temped to get the pop up washer jets from an Audi but couldn't get the buggers off it N

You're bound to be contravening some EU law regarding it's crash tested structural integrity, but then, who cares anyway

Crack on

[ned]

who need EU rule's anyway the bit above the bumper is rubber coated so soft on pedestrians that might bump into them N

Perhaps you should wait until after brexit then
You don't want Jean Paul spunker banging on you door in the middle of the night sausages in hand

I had water sloshing about inside mine

[ned]

When it's rained I get a nice waterfall when turning right think its from the windscreen gutter but could be from the bumper support, how did the water get in there. N

if i recall a old MK6 at work had a face plate for a snow plow bolted to that beam.

[ned]

What's a snow plough I suppose you could bolt anything to it wonder if I could fit some paintball guns somewhere to shoot the non indicating a***holes N
