Front clip torn off - how to repair
HI guys,
So I went to a diner for breakfast, and you wouldn't believe that this little 1"/25mm piece of rebar could wreak such havoc.
So I parked with my nose just over the concrete strip (no sound was heard. But when I went top pull out:
I went back into the diner to calm down, thinking I had to organize a tow, but thankfully upon a calmer review, I was able to get it back together with some tape, and drive it home.
Upon closer inspection I see that the screw connector has been stripped/ripped from the connecting panels, so I know I need to get a proper fix done.
Can these white screw connector be reattached to the original plastic panels?, or do I need to get new inner plastic support panels that connect to the front clip?
Thanks in advance for any advice. It's a bit embarrassing driving with a taped up car.
