my front bumper is drooping like a b**ch and it's getting on my nerves.
Does anyone know a way of keeping the b**tard up and out of the way of the wheels?
BTW I want to avoid drilling into the arch liner if poss., thanks guys!

Make sure that you have all of the fitting bolts in place, you should have 2 under the front edge, the 2 wing bolts at either end and then the 4 screws on the top lip under the bonnet. slacken all of the bolts off, pull the bumper up at the front so it sits flush against the headlamps, tighten the top screws and then tighten the bottom bolts, as long as you have done them tight enough it should stay put.

nothing special for them and you shouldn't need anything special, you may need to use some big washers on all of the bolts/screws that will help clamp the bumper in place, if it still wont go then most likely the bumper has been tapped etc and twisted slightly which is stopping you from lining it up correctly.
