I could do with a nsf jacking point cover if there is one going spare
Seriously if someone has just pulled them off the doors the doors will be rippled too fuck with no heat and chances are the strips no good either.

pm if you like, but can you show me how they come off? as in what fixings etc on a bumper on it's own?

i'm sure they'll be easy to secure properly, i remember the cossie bumpers that used to go missing as you could have, with a fairly swift yank, pull them off the standard mounts and have it away, some nicely placed pins made sure you had to spend a while stripping the front of the car down to get it off

So you can go round stealing them Dojj?

Lol, I'm not 100% but I think it's a few screws in wheel arches, then a couple of clips top and bottom. Can apparently be done in minutes. You could make it more secure easily, but who buys a car thinking they need to add extra fixings to bumpers? I would though, due to this problem

i seen him today, the lad with cossie.
The paint is ok, new strips will hide the little damage what has been done. He now on the lookout for some replacements.

And he thinks he has a reg plate of a van acting suspicious in the area.
So fingers crossed, fingers get removed.

24hr emergency plumber?

And even if it was me, and I was innocent, yes I would mind being hauled into a police station to answer questions on a bogus charge...
