    Right - Been Thinking about this for the last week or so. I met a Guy today who came to pick up some parts from a MK2 I'm breaking and he wanted a bumper slider bracket also as his G60 has the same problem - Turns out he's a VW mechanic and told me how they do them at work and this is what I have just done today and I'm very happy with the results...

    Tools Needed;


    Broken Bracket....


    Cut it into quarters;


    Nick the wife's kitchen flame thrower (Whilst she's not looking)!!!


    Heat up the bent over plastic and pull them off leaving a nice amount of plastic on he bracket (Careful not to over heat them and damage the paintwork)


    Put New Bracket in Place;



    Now Heat up the star socket and bend over the remaining plastic from the mounts;


    Use some stainless steel self taper screws;



    Re-attach the bumper to the car.... Stand back and admire the finished job!!!

        Was worried I might melt the nice new paintwork but took my time and it worked a treat..
