Hi,
I have lost a rear bumper reflector, then I replaced it and that fell out within 200 miles. Is there a special way, or grommet or fixing method to replacing these items and making sure they stay in the bumper?

Had a look at them and they have built in trim clips
causes
1 You busted them off when you pushed it home
2.You didn't push them home enough
3.or its a crap design and does that
Tip 1 . heat them up in hot water so the plastic becomes malleable, less brittle, less likely to break off on installation.
Tips 2 get some of that number plate self adhesive double sided closed cell foam pad material put that on the back so you have belt and braces .
all the best.mark
