Well, I took the front plastic crushguard off when I put the bomex front on the car, and now I'm getting to the point where I need to put the front crushguard back on cause the stock bumper sits too low and sags and waves in the wind and stuff lol.... How have you guys attached it back onto the car??

after the multiple times ive done it, ive done rivots, plastic push pins, and even zipties.

plastic push rivets and ive done the plastic rivets with the pins in the center. the plastic rivets work best. like the ones they use on the backhalf of the wheel well liner.


hardest part is just gettin them in.i take them and tape them to a round punch, use the punch to align it up, once ready push it in, then when u pull the punch the tape rips off letting go from rivet.

on the vert i had to swap crush guards for the 03 front. we used liquid nails on it but my guard is the foam one



If I'm weird and everyone else is weird, does that make me normal?

I tried attaching my Bomex kit for my 04 without the front and rear crush guards and seems like they wouldnt mount right without them

you have to cut or trim them down. when i had my bomex front i had to cut the crushguard in half and just use like the top half of it.

I used the entire crush guard on mine with no problem...it wanted to sag without it, and you cant notice it unless u climb up under the car...but, of coarse, no two cars are dead on exactly the same
