Front bumper, removing rubber strip

Discussion in 'Mech Tech' started by keithandtrudystype2, Oct 2, 2013.

  1. How do I remove the rubber strip so I can unbolt the front bumper??
     
  2. Daft question, 2 Allen bolts, one either side, releases the rubber.....
     
  3. Or you can sit in the local car park, minding your own business, and some old guy that really can't drive anymore, clips your rear bumper corner while reversing out.
    After checking for damage, (and finding none, or so you think) you have a full and frank discussion with him as to wether he should still be driving.

    Three weeks later, 100 miles from home you are passed by several vehicles signaling you to pull over as somethings wrong with the back of your bus.
    On stopping, you go around the back to find the rubber strip, hanging off and dragging down the road behind you.
    The fitting that had been clobbered had gone for good, and that was how my rear rubber strip was removed.

  4. Nice one tony.

    Mine only has the rubber at the front, perhaps if need to find the old guy and ask for him to remove the front!
     
  5. I still have only the front rubber, and its going to cost around 80 quid to replace the two.

  6. Custom and Commercial sell them separately !
     
  7. Or try Crazy Quiffs Mk1 Golf Emporium.....the early Mk1 bumper rubber is basically the same and about £30 from memory :)
     
  8. Thanks for the info.
