My front bumper and fender are coming apart where the arrow is. Are there clips or screws holding them together?

Yes! They get saggy. It's usually the mounting clip and/or bumper or fender edges. IIRC for the corner gap, that's more the clip (correct me if wrong please, guys).


There's a bolt in clip that attaches near the corner of the fender, and bumper skin edge gets pulled up onto it.

Apologies - can't look up the P/N right now.
I'm kind of flitting about here, busy day.

To follow up - IIRC, if it's actually the bumper skin that's the main issue, front or rear, you can slot/notch the mounting holes that use the pop rivets, slide some washers under those points, and button it all back a smidge more tightly with no gap.

Should be a couple DIYs for that still kicking around on here.

Will take pics if/when I do this.

We need a bit of a Renaissance on here to replace a bunch of the threads that have lost their info and/or pics.
