Title: Front bumper bracketry
Post by: Pee Vee on May 25, 2013, 02:53:17 PM
Could someone take a picture of the front bumper bracketry on a Coupe/Spyder/HPE for me?
I'm putting an early Rest-of-the-World bumper on my North American car and need to fabricate something to make it work. I can just weld an extension on to my current brackets to make parts #24 and #25, but in looking at items #22 and #23 (below), I don't see where they attach to the car or perhaps they attach to #24 and #25.

A picture would be worth a thousand words  :)

Looks like it could be the bumper to wing mounting bracket.

Hi

I will take a picture as I have the bumper removed currently and can show where they fit.

Give me a day or so as busy weekend as a holiday one in UK.

Hi

The bracket passes through the lower front valance and fastens to the flanges of the valance and the front wing using a bolt.

Here is best picture I could manage.

I wouldn't have suspected that.  ???
Thanks!

Hi

It does not take any real load, just stops movement, it is just the two middle ones which take the load.
