Having sold a rubber bumper top (that is otherwise in very nice condition) I was in the process of removing it from my chrome bumper.
It is held on by a number of bolts embedded in the rubber - and as luck would have it, the bolts and broke off before the nut would move (having rusted itself securely to the bolt!)
so - the question: how can you repair and modify the embedded bolts / plugs so that the rubber bumper top can be affixed to a new chrome bumper??
As the pix show - I have 1 bolt remaining, 4 that have sheared off, and one where the 'plug' in the bumper has disintegrated. The missing plug gives me the most hope, as I'm sure one might be able to remove the other 'plugs' and reconfigure something that would hold the bolt.
Thoughts or suggestions?
