Having now come round to fit my rear bumper, i think i have something missing. I have the bumper and two black guides that fit on the rear quater panels. For these black guides i have the 4 screws with bolts heads. But i think i may be missing some sort of plastic insert from the panel as the black guides are loose to fit with the bolts done up. am i just going insane:confused:

maby a parts epc can help me?

There are metal guides on the ends of the bumper, plastic guides on the rear quarters of the car, and the metal reinforcement bar that has bolts that go through the rear panel, tighten the nuts up on those from within the boot so secure the bumper.
