Is it necessary to replace a broken bumper clip?
1 Answers
A broken bumper clip does not necessarily need to be replaced, as it will not affect the vehicle's performance. If the bumper clip is damaged, it may cause the gap between the bumper and the car body to widen, which only affects the appearance rather than performance. However, if one side of the bumper has already come loose, it indicates that multiple clips may be broken, and replacement is required to avoid potential safety hazards. Methods for repairing a broken bumper clip: 1. To make bumper removal and installation easier, the engine's undercover needs to be removed; 2. Use a heat gun to melt the damaged clip area and blend it with welding rods or sticks to fuse it together; 3. Install a new bumper clip by securing it in the repaired position.
