Evening all, ive had my car ( MY99 UK classic ) a week now and am enjoying every minute of ownership.

I decided to have a good look underneath it today ( like you do! ) and noticed that my rear bumper is barely held on, and by that i mean it moves from side to side. It doesnt come off when you pull it but theres enough give to cause concern.

I was wondering what the banging noise was that i was getting when going over a bump, its probably the rear bumper moving about.

Anyone got a workshop manual that can tell me how to fix it securely?

Thanks

Adam

 

the plastic is fixed to the frame with plastic poppers on the top edge and a few (4) underneath.
The main frame is held on by four larger bolts bolted through the chassis rails from underneath (one side the bolts go through the towing eye)
