Gert, quick question. I mounted it a long time ago. Is it still the same version you are selling? Just mounted incorrectly?

Will show my mechanic, thanks. Think it might have happened because the car was lowered too much?

The more you lower the car, the higher the risk for scrapes.
Your FPB is mounted incorrectly, brining the bumper even lower .

Can you believe it! The mechanic said he mounted it in a way it would not be visible! Thereby defeating its purpose!!

Gert, one last question: I assume that assembly instructions are provided when the protection bar is delivered. I can hardly believe they mounted it the way they did. Aesthetics over protection...

Your mechanic can't get this right but rebuilds motors?
