hey guys
just recently installed some foggies so i took off the frotn bumper
put it back in
and ive just recently noticed that the rubber flap which goes behind the frotn bumper (ie the stuff than surrounds the inside of the wheel arch) is like stickin up

ive had a look and have no idea how i can make it stick down
anyone know?

Im sure that i replied to this already

but here goes again

Remove the bumper and get a mate to hold it for you while you make sure that all the black polycarbonate/rubber tabs are tucked into the correct spots on the bumper.

Basically it should all clip together.

Then when it is screwed in place it will lock together tight and not stick out.

Having a mate there to help you makes the job easyer as he can make sure that as you get one side to fit the other one does not pop out.

Hope that helps

Or you can do what [N] said and just remove it. its only a splash guard. That is ment to protect the Resonator and Brakes.

only remove your wheel arch plastic if you want your coefficient of drag to skyrocket.

Or if you want dirt, mud and gravel inside the gaurd and up through the engine bay on a rainy day..

Been there, done that..
