Default Another Sagging Front Bumper Problem...

I've just fitted the front bumper and although the middle grill section is straight and sag-free the corners are hanging down a touch. It's had all-new mounts, brackets and fixings and has fitted correctly in the side mounts but is a bit droopy in the corners.

I know most are sagging a little in the corners now and that the middle can just be pushed back if that goes but has anyone been able to improve the corners at all? (I don't think they'd take too kindly to the same forceful approach! )

Can you take a pic of it mate? You may find that adjusting the two mount on the front of the bumper helps with this problem. They are torx 30 or 40 iirc.

Yeah i've got pics but can't upload them at the mo (at work) but adjusting the height doesn't make a difference, it's just the way the bumper wants to sit. I've adjusted it as high as it'll comfortably go so the corner gaps are as small as possible... i think that's as good as it's gonna get! Oh and they're T40

And you have pm re fuel rail Paul
