install guide: fender/bumper re-enforcement
ok guys, you were all probably expecting this from me at one time or another....
I've got several front-end bumpers and I swap them out for different ocasions - photos shoots, local videos/movies, import shows, test fitting, and as well as one just for daily driving.
....after a while the fender attachments to hold on those front bumpers (after several swaps), get loose, tear or even (gawd forbid) break off... what are you sposta do now???? take it to a professional bodyshop where they will charge you $100 to fix each side - heck no!
its less then $10 for the parts and everything is easy to install - the best part is, NO WELDING REQUIRED! ![[Thumbs up]](graemlins/thumbsup.gif)

I took photos to write up the guide, but I just havent gotten around to writting the text parts yet... but im sure that by looking at all the parts in each shot, the install should be simple ![[Smile]](images/graemlins/smile.gif)

i tried to do this, but i couldnt adjust the bracket to the right angle. i just couldnt get the bondini to work with the inner fender and the bracket. around what angle does the bracket have to be (roughly)?

use metal glue to attach the parts to each other...
and as for the angle, keep sticking it into your clamp and adjusting it to the correct angle you need - depending on how bad your fender is, the angle could be different

Do you have to take out the stock Blue rubber nut in the fender hole ???
|
|
|
if thats what your celica came with - yes....
Different years come with different fender bolts - strange as that sonds

Hi
I not sure to understand how you install it. I know that you replace the stock fender bolt by a new one. But where you attach the second hole of you bracket.
