			 Any suggestions for improving front bumper alignment greatly appreciated.  The mounting bolts are fully seated with the appropriate washers/lock washers.  Right side is better than the left side; neither are very good.  My trusted local body shop declined to try as this is the first 914 they've seen...LOL

			 The bumper spacers need to be installed. Most folks don't even know they are there. You can shim with a stainless washer if you need any adjustment, but shouldn't really need that. You can make your own is you want, but this is what I'm talking about.
