HowManyBolts are holding your Mugen bumper? - Honda Prelude Forum

I have only TWO measly bolts on each side of the fender. I could not believe how its holding up. Do you guys ONLY have two bolts holding your mugen bumper up too? if you got other bolts, I'd like to know. Thanks

Yeah, I had 2 bolts on either side... a bad body shop would actually put a third bolt on the grill part, it looks really fugly!

The bumper was actually pretty secure with the 2 bolts, unless the fiberglass was weak in that area. The bad thing is that if you push the bumper to the side it would flex.

Same for me and my aggressor 2 kit. 2 screws in the fenderwells. The place that put it on drilled more holes and put the stock clips there, but i keep breaking the clips everytime I put them back in and have to buy new ones...

Thanks for the reply guys. Guess I'm not alone.

Guess I have to study it a bit more. I was kinda like WTF when they just screwed those two bolts in. Amazing how it holds up.
Probably my bumper could make the next movie "Gone in 10 seconds"

hey Patrick, your car is really coming along...

anyways, when I used to have the mugen front bumper, it was held on by two screws on each side of the fender, and we also used two more screws on the underside, and screwed them into the factory engine splash guard.
