Does anyone have a clear photograph of the inside of the rear bumper, particularly the offside and nearside ends?
I took my car to a welder/restorer to have metal arches inserted, and now, both ends of the bumper are sticking out a little. I can push them back but they just spring out again. It is as if a clip or a bracket is no longer there.
I saw, very briefly, one photo that the guy had taken: it seemed to show that during the welding, a piece of what looked like plywood had been inserted between the bodywork and the bumper and levered back so as to create a gap for welding/protecting the bumper.
I asked if he had removed the inner trim and he said he had not. However, the inner trim and the hatch-seal have been disturbed and the hatch does not close as easily as it did. He certainly did not remove the inner arch liners: they are still filthy and caked in mud.
I am not very happy at the moment.
