    If you are going to mount it like that - raise it and french in the extensions to make it look like it belongs there.....

    Im guessing they didnt know about the small bumper extension. I wonder if they even put a brace inside of the car. But its a simple fix.

    it still has the big bumper extensions which do not allow it to be placed normally. All it needs are the small bumper extensions and it can be placed in the normal spot.

    I think tucking the big bumper looks better that not doing it right. I would rather have it look like it might have been made that way even if it wasn't. :huh:
