RS2 front bumper drooping/sagging/drop

[Golfboy666GTI]

As you can see from the pic the front bumper on my RS2 has sagged at the front. It seems to be common that RS2 bumpers dont fit very well?
I took the right hand side fog light out to have a look and it seems that the mount (plastic) is cracked. Is this a separate part to the the bumper?
I would take it off and look but my car is daily driven so I dont want to be running around with the bumper off, and the pics on VAGCAT dont seem to be working.

If anyone has any pics or advice they can post up I would be grateful.

this is quite common on all rs2 after many years of hanging on thesame bracket,i think tired bracket are to blame,stealers will not order new bracket only you fork out for a new bumper,and that's will set you back £1300

The mounts and bumper are all one part. I too think that the RS2 bumper generaly has a poorer fit than the S2 bumper, and not to mention the flimsy grille. But man do they look the buisness.

The brackets are likely broken and need repairing

I'm sure you can plastic weld the mouting, then maybe strengthen it with a steel insert?
