Default Missing Rear Bumper Bracket?
When cleaning up the garage, and tossing out the mostly junk that came with the car, I found a set of OEM rear mud flaps. Cool enough.

I went to install them, and noticed something odd. The mud flaps have two clips that go up the side, and one hole for a horizontal attachment into the bottom rear edge of the bumper. Unfortunately, my M-style bumper only has two vertically orientated holes aligned with the bottom rear edge.

Am I missing a bracket or something at the bottom of my bumper near the tire?

Someone must know the answer to this, or can go out into the garage and shoot a quick picture of the same area on the M rear bumper.

Thanks!

Thanks. I am guessing I am missing some type of inner fender liner although I couldn't find a part number for a rear liner on realoem.

rear off my 95 ti, no rear flaps




My 97, has rear flaps



Looks like you are missing the inner liner at the least. Odd, I looked as well and didn't find the rear liner in RealOEM either. I did find the front liner.

I hope this helps. Regards

That is just what I was looking for. I bet the ti fender liners are ti specific.

Those should be fun to find to fit the M-spec bumper :-(

Thanks!

That is such a tough one.
There is no visible part number facing the wheel.

Oh wait.

Too good links. Thanks! I searched eBay but clearly wasn't searching for the right terms.

I will contact a couple of the OEM places and see if they are still available.

I googled rear wheel covering 318ti and found the ebay ad which had a part number.
According to Penskeparts.com it's still available.
