Default Premium Bumper DPG000160 Fittings

I have a Premium Bumper (an ebay one that is unpopulated) and the MG7 grille from Sean. I'm in the process of building this up and also have a DPG000160 - Bracket For Upper In Fill Mounting. Now, the DPG000160 needs to be fixed to a metal bracket which has seven studs and should be on inside top of the bumper. Does anyone know where I might obtain this part or could provide me with some pics which would help me fabricate one?

I can think of couple of ways for an improvised fit of the DPG000160 - but would liketo get something very close to the original - if possible :-)

Tommy

Thanks picky747, I have the DPG000160 it's the part that it mates to I'm after. I'm sure the part I'm after should be part of the premium grille itself and is glued in place.

Tommy :-)

Tommy.
The part you refer to is a steel plate with several bolts, the plate is secured to the bumper with adhesive. Anything that can be removed from the bumper and not an actual part of the bumper itself, would have a part number. The item you refer to and other brackets such as the fog and lower grille mount brackets I believe had no standalone part number, as they are part of the bumper itself.

I would use a good quality double sided tape such as is used to affix number plates, and silicone around the seam to keep the weather out. the mating face of the bracket should be ok, but I would smear Gorilla Glue to the fibreglass bumper mating face to give a smooth sdherent surface

The premium bumper slam panel bracket is available to order from

Thanks very much Steve, I appreciate the advice :-)

Good news that southlakeminis have the DPG000160 slam panel brackets available and at a reasonable price!
