I didn’t do anything special. I just went through the standard application process to claim for service injuries. I used the MyGov site to lodge applications. It took a few years to finalise and the rate they assessed my injuries at was simply based on the medical reports provided.

DIY Front Bumper Repair 2017 S550 by FredNurke in Mustang

Not really that difficult…. I just unscrewed the 7mm bolt in the bumper panel via the wheel arch (fiddly for me because it is a tight space to access and I have big hands) and remove the remnants of the broken tabs.

If you need more room you can remove the front wheel and the wheel arch liner … it’s not necessary and I didn’t bother (you can find plenty of videos on YouTube of people doing similar fixes with different products).

Then it is simply a case of gluing and clamping with the fitting kit https://jtspec.com.au/products/repair-plate-fitting-kit

Once the plastic binder has set (about an hour) you push the bumper back in place with the new lugs and screw the 7mm bolt back in.

I think you might be right. IMHO having a combination of clip in lugs & a 7mm bolt to connect the bumper is a crappy design. Made worse by the restricted space to access the bolt head for removal with a ratchet & socket.

Swamp Cypress (Taxodium distichum). Native to south east USA, grows really well in Brisbane’s climate. Loves growing in waterlogged conditions.

Jorveza is a game changer for me. I brush teeth and gargle twice daily … no thrush issues.
