Front or rear? Is the gap where the corner meets the fender? If so, you can take out those plastic clips and use a bolt/nut with washers to pull them closer together. Yeah we're still breathing :D

Yeah, I got the sizes I needed from the hardware store. Get stainless = no rust :thumb:
It's also a good idea to get some of the plastic washers to put between the metal washers and the fender, just so you don''t have metal on metal, which could rub on the fender over time and create rust when the paint wears through.

I wonder if he were able to fit his bumpers or have a replacement if not. Getting aftermarket parts is quite tricky. You really have to be certain when it comes to the size.
