Euro bumpers

turbo diesel,

I just removed the euro bumper from the rear of my 280TE, 5 speed and installed an American bumper. The single bolt, inside the two verticle ones, is the mounting bolt for the euro bumper. So, there are only those two inside single bolts for the euro bumpers. I've two euro wagon ones and two sets of euro coupe ones and that's how they all mount. Sounds to me like someone has rearranged the mounts that are on your new euro bumper. Since there are only two small bolts holding each of these mount, you might just have to undo these two bolts, flop the bumper mount over 180 degrees and reinstall the two bolts so that the mounts are on correctly resulting in everything mounting up correctly.

Check it out.

Ben
