xr6t ego Member 1,112 Member For: 17y 3m 25d Gender: Male Location: PERTH WA Posted 13/01/17 11:26 AM Share Posted 13/01/17 11:26 AM Hey all, I'm sure I'm not alone in saying, as things get older they start to sag. And that's the problem with my '06 Falcon front bumper. I noticed some time ago that it was starting to drop and the more I look at it the worse it looks. I had a search for fixes, but was unable to locate one. So has anybody dealt with this problem or any ideas on fixes would be grately appreciated. TIA Brendan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was just Ford manufacturing standards. All my bolts are there even behind the number plate. Might have to try the noodle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
