Help me install my amuse bumper correctly

NickTurnon

I have some experience with molding a rear bumper on the car, as I just added a duraflex Nismo a couple months ago..

Right below your finger in the third photo, there is a bracket beneath the body. Its attached to the frame of the car. It has 5 clips that were made for OEM bumpers to clip into and hold them into place right below the taillight.

When I got my duraflex bumper, there was extra paneling near that bracket, but no HOLES or INSERTS for the bumper to clip into. So i had to custom drill holes for the bracket to connect to... It seems to me that may be your issue. The sagging or not filling out looks like its from not being properly fitted onto that bracket/mount on the underside of the bumper, I could be wrong though.

My rear bumper was off fitment by around 8-10 inches. Took 2 hrs of heat gun and custom molding to make it fit and look perfect..

Goodluck and hopefully its fixable

Yeah, was quoted $1650 for the nismo rear, install, and full car dip.

Did all the molding/sanding/shaping/drilling/bondo and then dipped my car..
Its all in my build thread. But I ended up installing the rear and adding SL front lip, full car dip, and a couple other things.. Ended up spending $700 something.

Saved a TON of $$$ and researched and did it myself. Heres a teaser. More photos in my build thread, also i made DIY so when you are ready to do it... you can have something to work off of.

^^^^exactly! Mine was the same way. You must custom drill the holes. And then the 5 holes he was talking about are not round holes they are OEM punched square holes which are a bit$$ to custom make.
