Rear bottom bumper - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

SquadRogue · 12-29-2014, 02:26 AM

So today, I was washing my car. And for the first time I played with the rear bumper, noticed it's not all that intact. For example if you push the light you'll notice the black bumper won't be completely connected to it; it'll wiggle a bit.
Is this for you guys as well? or do I have to go back to the dealer and tell them that the rear bottom bumper has lost its ability to hold itself and the light completely together as it's loose.

The bumper is mainly held on by clips and tabs and always has a little movement which is normal

The tail-light shouldn't move at all as it's bolted directly to the body and is independant of the bumper

If you're talking about the reverse bar it's held on by two bolts on top, two pop clips on the side, and it clips into the black bumper part on the bottom :o

All is good! It is a modern car not a tank and the "bumpers" are just plastic covers not a structural part of the car.

When are you going to stop making stupid threads?

you don't need to make a thread for every little thing.. there is such a thing called clutter and people searching for solutions and discussions will have to sift through your threads as well, which to date have not been unique or un-talked about problems

Learning the proper nomenclature probably would not hurt either. "Rear bottom bumper" sounds like a BDSM thing, not a car part.
