All the retaining screws and clips went into the bumper so I think the bumper supports the tray not the other way around.I do note points 2-5 however and I definately don't want to disrupt the cooling and I am guilty for jacking the car via the front crossmember. Best I get under the car this weekend and reattach it. BTW, where can I jack both front wheels at the same time or is it a no no?Muz<{POST_SNAPBACK}>No, they don't ALL go into the bumper.I've seen crossmembers cracked due to jacking.You shouldn't attempt to lift both front wheels simultaneously, nor the rears for that matter with an IRS vehicle. It is far safer to lift one side at a time ... if not one corner at a time.the brunks> Hey, at the end of the day it's your car (and money) mate and you're welcome to do what you like to it eh. I'm only offering advice for people who have asked Qs and want to learn, not trying to shove personal opinion or ideas down anyone's neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The removal of the stone tray will make your front bumber vibrate violently and make an awfull noise. (I thought I caught a bird in the engine bay! I know this first hand.... Mine when straight back on.....Cutsnake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
