one mine the rear rubbers were already off when i bought the car but it llook like a peice of metal was use to fill the hole. or if ur disperate, use screws might help it a little bit.

Re: regarding bumpers

You could always use those small chrome bumper bolts or get a piece of side molding like used to protect the doors and slap that on.

But if you like the chrome look you'll eventually get the euro bumper like I did.

Actually there is an article on this on a website from Rob Sime. Do a search in yahoo.com or google.com for PlanetZ (the name of his website) or try looking up his name Rob Sime.

Let me know if you don't find it and I'll get the direct link.

Re: regarding bumpers

does chrome paint work on stuff like the z badge on the pillar or inside where the chrome has faded? Where can you get it?

Re: regarding bumpers

you can purchase the msa kit and remove the bumpers completely or have your existing bumpers "dechromed", weld/grind the holes smooth and paint the bumpers to match the car or a contrasting color. i did this on my 240 as an inexpensive alternative to the euro bumpers. it only cost about $100 to do both bumpers vs. 600 for the euro bumpers.
