Front bumper Rebuild(revB) Parts Question:Whats this bit for

[p_j_smith]

Hi All

Don’t know if the following will work, it’s the first time I put a picture up on here.



See part number 52526A, this is only fitted according to the parts book on the very last MK1’s (not on all the rev B cars)

It should be on mine but it was never there when I took the front end off.

Any ideas what it’s for, it looks like it a spacer that goes between the front bumper and the bumper bar???

Cheers

Peter

PS – New piccy’s uploaded here…do you think I've gone a bit far as all I needed to do was replace the radiator!!!!!!

is the red a anti-rust primer type stuff or propper red red?

Actually the bumper bar was a new one that then had a few coats of Red Oxide, followed by Grey Primer, and finally some Toyota Super Red left over from my old MK2.....

Oh, and a final coat of wax oil, figured out that the first one lasted nearly 15 years, this one will last until oil runs out!!!!!

Does look great having a little red tow eye sticking out
