73 tii bumper mount to fender

[mjcari]

Another bumper question.

 

I am mounting the bumper and drilling the holes for the m8 bolts that go from the bumper to the fenders. I only recall it being a couple of washers and a bolt. Am I missing something ? A rubber mount? Anyone with a picture of this mount? FYI its a 73 so the bumper sits off of the body compared to the older ones.

 

thanks

They may not be perfect, but sources such as RealOEM.com are your friends!

 

Select “Classic” and owners of pre-1974 cars should know their car’s production month in advance.

You’ll need items 8 (rubber washer) through 13.

This looks like the rear bumper extension.  Need to wash your car and do something about that zip tie.

[mjcari]

it is the rear, but the part number is the same

I looked at the front also.

 

Thanks for not mentioning the quarter lip rust!

 

I have a new euro rubber, with fasteners, to replace that rubber. I broke the fastener on that piece reinstalling it after paint. 

 

I have the quarter lip replacement piece also ?

In the rear, ONE rubber washer. 

In the FRONT, two rubber washers. 

 

But that's only if you run into an evil concours judge and you want to be correct.

I bought new spacers from BMW and I used only one in the front. They would be easily made from nylon tube.

I've had success with using a bench mounted grinder on black, rubber sway bar end link bushings for a "you can't tell" work-around solution to bumper mounting bushings. I just gently grind them down to the height I want. looks factory when done carefully.

Trying not to overindulge in constructive criticism.  All the rubber trim hardware broke when I removed it from my tii in 2006. Bloody expensive stuff from BMW - even back then.

You’re safe, Ray, because:

 

(a.) correct OEM rubber washers, in the correct numbers, are in place at each corner, or...

 

(b.) you’re not about to allow an evil concours judge near your car?  ?

 

Best regards,
