I'm backdating my bumpers and followed the instructions on Ken Steele car and i can't get the bumper to fit well. Also the 914 rubber top flares out at the ends. Attached Image Attached Image

Thanks Darren.
Yes you can use a small set screw and others have had success by installing one side and with a warm environment installing one bolt at a time with tension to stretch the bumper.
We will be redoing these tools to make larger in the future, but it will be this summer.

If you wish to return I will do so with a full refund.
Thanks,
Mark

I spoke to Mark today and he suggested a couple of fixes, so I will do as he directed.
Mark is a stand up guy and he has always been helpful. I know this small issue will be
fixed and my build would have been impossible with out his company and his dedication
to us all in the 914 world. Thanks again Mark
