Perfect fit right outta tba packaging. Has held up to a help of a lot of abuse. The misses tore it off on a kerb then drove over it. I've had it scraping the road I eventually pulled it off and have now sorted it. Will be glueing it on next time.

Mines riveted on if you bond it then it gets damaged that's your bumper fucked so bonding it would be silly

How come it would be silly?

If I had mine bonded in the first place it would never had been damaged the way it has.

what if you damage it then need to remove it and you can't as its bonded on? Or if you know it and crack the bumper as its bonded on?

There's plenty room to get the glue cut off again. It'll only need a thin strip of glue.
