Bought wrong bumper

bsad0521 · 10-16-2018, 02:08 PM

Sweet so I messed up and bought an m tech rep bumper for my lci e90 335i and just realized I don't have headlight washers on my car. Anyone know how to stick these headlight washer covers on the bumper with out them flying off. Really don't feel like returning the bumper and dealing with all the hassle.

Just use 3m double sided tape, it's what everyone uses on those.

Thanks I was thinking about that. hopefully they wont stick out too much with the tape and make the bumper look weird.

Have you painted the bumper yet? If not, you can have the paint shop fill it.

Just use all-purpose silicone from Home Depot.

Urethane panel adhesive or urethane windshield adhesive.
They will never come off.
