My ti is staring to look old and is in need of a face lift. The lights, nose piece, and bumper have dropped about 1/4 inch. Any ideas on how to perk it up without having to take it to a body shop? |  |  | | 01-31-2006, 04:03 AM | #2 | | TRETEN IRGENDEINES ESELS Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Rhode Island Posts: 3,687 |

ya my front bumper and rear bumper are both starting to fall a little on one side, If your having the same issue you probably need to get new clips for the bumpers, thats what I probably have to do or tighten any bolt that might me lose. __________________  my new world | | | | | 01-31-2006, 09:12 PM | #5 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Utah Posts: 100 |
The gaps in these area's are larger then they should be. Im guessing its the clips also, but wondering if anyone else has any ideas. | | | | | 01-31-2006, 10:07 PM | #6 | | TRETEN IRGENDEINES ESELS Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Rhode Island Posts: 3,687 |
Looks like mine but mines not as bad. I'm thinking this happens when you pull into a space and catch the curb underneath your bumper. __________________ 98 Avus Blue 318 ti Active
