Loose Bumper
 

Hello,

I've got a problem that I am sure is minor and simplistic to the
majority but has continued to bewilder me for some time.

About a year ago, I got into a light fender bender with my 2000 Honda
Civic EX. There was little damage to either car, but my Honda did
receive the brunt of the impact and damage.

Now, my problem is that a screw holding the front right side of the
bumper to the frame of the car has come off. The impact seems to have
broken the plastic housing the screw tightens into and as a result, the
bumper hangs down about 1/4 of an inch below the right headlight.

I've tried to fix this problem in a number of ways, from using a zip
cord to superglue, none sucessful. I know there is some way that can
be corrected, any thoughts?

thanks

Whatever kind of Honda you may have (you didn't say) might be listed in
www.slhondaparts.com . Look at the parts list and get the plastic anchor
and a screw from the dealer or a body shop.

Voila!
