Front Bumper

[214si]

where does it bolt onto lol???

does it go throught the slam panel?? or through the lower front valance???

i aint put her together yet and was just wondering what holds it in place as the brackets on the back of the bumper have a stepped plate with a thread on it but i cant see where it would bolt in place

Have a look at mine

You can see the black threaded holes where a bolt goes - this is what the v shaped bracket goes into that holds onto my chrome bumper.

Hope this helps

mk1 or mk2

[214si]

sorry mk2!

[Luke]

mk2 bolts through the front panel onto some angle brackets which bolt onto the front crossmember

[214si]

bugger i dont have these angled brackets off the crossmember!!!

off i go

[vana mana]

you should have..did i not give you any with the bumper?

[214si]

yes, the brackets are there on the bumper itself, i dont have the brackets from the front crossmember in which the bumper would bolt onto

[redeemer]

is it a phase 1 or 2 that is a steel grille or plastic grille ,
because the the phase1 has an angle bolted to the front cross member and this bolts to the flange of the bumber
but the phase2 have a larger hole in the on the front so the bumper bracket goes through and bolt directly to the top face of the chasis rail.
hope it helps.

Now im getting confused..the one i had was pre facelift..i will look for brackets ..not sure if i still have em..there yours if i can find em/may have gone with bus to scrappy..may have spares..
As for plastic grill mk2 i will have to check my mates for set up..i thought they were all the same fixings

[214si]

not a big problem i sure i can knock some kind of bracket up to hold it in place!

[vana mana]

i will still have a look for ya..
