the brackets that fit to inside of front bumper,ones that attach from inside front wheel arch should have two torx bolts as oe spec,the bolt that holds it on is identical to the rear bumper bolt.

Think i have found the answer... 4 self tap screws needed for both brackets, 2 each side??????????????????. Both side needs 2 :crap: !

I only got sent 2 and they have washers, maybe thats because they are used with the little metal clips that i was also supplied, these metal clips fit on onto brackets to fix bumper to car.

i dont know :confused:

yep those metal clips slip over the bracket an the bolt then goes through that,there very similar to speed nuts....the actual brackets i guess could be just fixed with correct size self tappers but oe has torx heads screws.
