Question About MK2 Golf Front Bumpers

Post by Risocco »

Hi, can any of you knowledgable people help me out? Are the front bumpers on a MK2 Golf supposed to be a real pain to re-fit? Everytime I've had to put them back on in 8+ years of MK2 ownership it takes bloody forever! I can see I've lined everything up from underneath but the bolts don't grab the bumper irons for ages. :ire:

Is there a trick to doing this quickly?

Cheers for any help guys :buddy:
