Help - that time has come...

YorksMG2013 · 18th March 2018, 10:07

when the chrome surround on my premium bumper (MGR not Roewe) is falling off.

Is anyone in my area (Yorks) who has one, able to help?
I know there is a 'how to' somewhere which goes into all sorts of details, but I don't have the confidence to try and bodge it when I know they are so hard to replace if I damage it.
When dry (and warmer) maybe gorilla glue?

Thanks

Andrew

How do they fit on to the bumper?

Is it the glue that has failed?

Dear All

Here is a short video showing the condition this morning.
Note about half way through the clip there seems to be a mounting plate which is lose and sliding up and down behind the trim

Seems like you have answered your own question. Tightening the bracket will be the answer I hope.
