Well Earlier today i was out, and i hit a mean dip in the road, since im on factory wheels the car is real low. it hit the bumper and broke the Passenger left Tab which is used to screw into the car, so theirs no way to hold the left side up..Only thing i thought is getting it molded, but i need access to the front end incase sometimes goes wrong with the intercooler/pipeing. Any body know were i can find like what those Drifter guys use to hold up thier bumpers for quick detach? I dont know the name i searched google no luck, its like a piece which screws into ur bumper and other in ur fender...?

Pretty sure these are Dzus fasteners.

jb weld and washers all you need..."weld the washers to the bumper and let dry then just bolt it back up should only take a few minutes to dry

you could drill a hole near the tab on a none visible side of the bumper and use zipties

if you use zip tieds, it will sag. If not at first, eventually.

dont think he actually wanted a quick detach but rather a good solution to fix the bumper and have it mount back up
exactly what i meant ron use the washers as new mounting holes

i used zip ties FTW on my black car.
when i got in the wreck, instead of the bumper being detroyed. the zip ties broke and it sent the bumper flying 40 ft away and into the grass.....
every single tab on the bumper remained perfectly intact.
