Let me try and explain it again. The two white tabs attached to the bumper. They are the ones held on by the torx Screws, one is to the left and the other to the right of the grill. .


I think that's also the same point were the rallying brackets mount. Mine cracked and about to break off I'm trying to figure out a proper way to fix it.

Hi, the picture doesn't give you much to look at, plus you have 2 cars listed on you sig, which car are we talking about?, I don't have rally lights but doesn't the rally lights mount on the bonnet? Try to pull the diagram of the part from Real OEM or Pensky parts to have a clear idea.

Now if it is a tab that has broken off you may be able to fix it,.... I think

There I circled it. It's a r56.

I may of been mistaken on the rally lights I thought there was a hole in which the brackets went through and mounted there.

Anyway this is the piece cracked in half and I'm not sure how to fix this and if it serves as a major point. I'm installing a front splitter and I'm afraid the downforce will rip it off.
