R53 Aero Front Bumper Gap

[rhys1501]

Hi,

My R53 front bumper seems to have a gap between the bonnet and bumper on the passenger side. There is also a gap on the drivers side but this is not as big.

I have adjusted the front plastic panel to its highest but is there any further adjustments that can be done?

Strangely enough I have exactly the same problem with mine for some reason ?

Hi,

I changed my horns to some electromagnetic air horns which required removal of the front bumper. When I re fitted it I adjusted it all the way up and even adjusted the bonnet catches down slightly to be bring the gap closer together.

Worked a treat!

It helps if you adjust the gap with all the various push fastenings undone, making sure that the bumper is far enough back at the same time. Then do up the various push fastenings.

My 2004 Cooper with an Aero kit fitted is the same.
