| 説明 | This was after about 10 minutes of work spent returning the stock rear body kit on my car (which I basically never drive) to its original, proper-looking position after I did something dumb.Returning home from the airport with my parents and 100 lbs of luggage in the back, my 2005 Toyota Celica hung low enough to barely scrape part of the (deceptively-powerful-looking) exhaust cowling on a concrete barrier while backing into my parking spot. (Cue bad noise #1.)Of course I then moved the car a bit forward because I'm an idiot, breaking a few plastic snap-in pieces and shearing the top off a plastic joint holding the skirt on the back (cue bad noises #2, #3, #4 and maybe #5.) This left the lower right half of the rear bumper "skirt" (including the cowling, grill and plastic frame) looking like a hangnail, slightly disconnected from the bumper.I put in a replacement nylon screw, nut and washer to re-attach the exhaust cowling and skirt to the car (with Michele's helpful advice), and the whole assembly is holding together pretty well despite the small broken snap-in plastic connectors along the middle-right area.I know embarrassingly little about cars and mechanical stuff, so this was a little frustrating and humbling, but kind of fun. (If you've fixed broken bumper connectors before, on a side note, I'd love to hear any tips/suggestions.) |
