Anyone know the part # for the chrome molding that clips into the sides of the bumper? I broke mine trying to get it out of the old bumper. I néed both sides please

I'm sure he's gonna answer as soon as he sees this thread

 

There is a sticky thread for part# questions. It's at the top of the page. You can't miss it.

Sorry, late to the thread. You're talking about the front bumper, right? If so, the Dr's numbers are correct.

 

A word of advice. As you can probably see now that you have one removed, the slots in the bumper that the chrome piece clips into are sorta crude - they kind of look like they were made with the blade of a screwdriver heated with a torch. Not uniform in shape and not all the same size. You can also see that MB used a hardending black goo in each slot to hold the clip. If you just snap the new piece in place without basically replacing the black goo, it will almost certainly not be tight. The ends - particulary the end on the back around that tight curve - will not lay down flat. Then you will try to remove the piece to deal with that issue, and you will almost certianly break it again. Then you will swear like I did. Take my advice and deal with it up front. Go to ACE or Home Depot and buy waterproof epoxy. It comes in the double plunger tube like most epoxy, but it's white. It never totally hardens - its stays rubbery but pretty hard. Use a toothpick to put a small dab in each hole and and even smaller dab on the bottom of each clip, and use strips of blue painter's tape to hold it tight until it dries - a few hours or overnight.

This advice applies to my experience with a rear bumper. I assume the front is the same way, but you never know. The failure to lay down flat may not be quite the issue with a front bumper because the piece does not overlap another piece like it does on the rear. It looks bad on the rear if the two pieces are not flush.

 

Thank you.
Thanks mang.
I never took them off, i should have written my "shop" broke them trying to install them. You'd advise me to put some IN each hole and in the middle (the space between each hole)?

 

No, don't put any between the holes. You'll risk squeeze out that will be hard to remove and it really doesnt stick to the chrome well anyway. You are not such much gluing it on in the traditional sense as you are creating a little ball of glue behind the hole that will grab and hold the hook on the little tabs once the glue sets up. Whether it actually sticks to the tabs is not important. I removed all the hardened MB black goop - just pushed them inside with a smal screwdriver.
