These stainless steel plates are designed to repair and upgrade damaged side tab attachment holes for the OEM pre-face lift 86/BRZ front bumper. Pre-face lift includes 2012-2016.
This is a new and improved design, not only to repair the broken damaged tabs on the front bumper, but to address the common 'bumper sag'. The sagging issue may be caused from the tabs not hooking onto the plastic retainer hooks. This improved design features an added metal tab on the plates to act as a 'hook' which helps the bumper tabs hook onto the retainers to improve the connection.
To install, simply sand down & clean surfaces on the damaged bumper tabs and the repair plates
Please take time to sand down the plastic tabs well (about 1mm) so that the repair plates do not increase the thickness of the tabs too much so that it may be too hard to push the side of the bumper in.
Then simply glue the plates in place on the bottom side of the bumper tabs. Apply evenly spread pressure with clamps whilst it’s drying.
