Hello everyone,

I've made some stainless bumpermounts that won't rot/rust and break! They replace 477 501 089 | 477501089
Here are some pictures, I can make more if there is any intrest.

The original are made flimsy so they bend/brake in a low speed impact to not buckle the "tub" which would be far more expensive to repair. I would replicate that behavior.

My car has had a little nock here and there, also on the bumpers, but the mount did not bucle. Where the mounts mount on is now intended, so the bumpermounts don't break before your body bends. But I understand your thoughts.
