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

I thought it was just Ford manufacturing standards. All my bolts are there even behind the number plate. Might have to try the noodle.
