How to Install Quick Release Bumper Fasteners

______________________________________________________________________________

** I DO NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR VEHICLE BEING DAMAGED ** THIS IS FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY **
If you do not choose to get touch up paint, your steel fender will rust given an appropriate amount of time, especially in environments where Salt / Road deicing products are used as they will accelerate the rust process. I STRONGLY recommend spending the 20 bucks or whatever it costs to get some touch up paint.

Don't forget when you drill into your bumper and fender, MEASURE TWICE, DRILL ONCE

i’m so late, but this was actually one of the most educational videos i’ve seen, super well explained, very clear, and from what it sounded like… you knew exactly what you were talking about. amazing.

If I put this on my Mustang, will I be more effective when ploughing through crowds?

[RichHomieBodhi]

Thanks for the instructions. Just did this to my sister’s car where her bumper was loose. 9 years later and still a solid tutorial

Thank you SO MUCH for this video. I know it's 8 years later, but still. I just bought and painted front and rear bumpers for my car, and though the fit is good, it's not factory, and I got some of these fasteners to tighten everything up, but they did not come with instructions, so this was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks again!

[sethschneider]

the fact that you did this just for looks gives me a migraine

[jrmyadventr]

Been thinking about these for a while, old mount points broke and I've used bolts with nuts, but removing these are a pain, so these are going to make more sense

You forgot to mention that, u MUST be careful when drilling because the bit is going to want to slip and leave a nasty scratch. So I would recommend by drilling slowly and let the drill do the work. Don’t apply too much pressure

This is a quick and easy extremely inexpensive way to solve my front and rear passenger bumpers POP off, eliminate tape and no expensive replacement, this car will be with me until it can not be repaired.
2011 ford fusion this car has been so durable, we went thru a high hilly pastor, like the Dukes of Hazzard not a scratch just those 2 spots of bumper popped off that's it.
(It was an accident, ran off road)

looks like you dented the fender putting that much pressure on the drill

[edcashwell]

Great video, I wasn't a fan of these, but then you mentioned the fender gap, a lightbulb went off!! Nice job!!

[Bigshockd]

Outch! Huhuhu i need to drill my flawless panel to fix the bumper huhuhu

[GogogoFolowMe]

I recommend to use a smaller drill bit to begin with

[lancetenhoopen]

Nice job. Agreed with Lawrie below. Also, you might want to mention you didn't paint the plastic bumper with touch up, not a big deal but it stuck out considering you did such a great job detailing the reasoning behind the touch up paint on the metal fender.

[s.lawrie]

First of all, great vid m8. Was looking to see what these look like on different cars. They look good on the Focus.

Secondly... and I hate to sound all critical... But you shouldn't apply that much pressure when you're drilling paint work, more specifically metal work. You can even see in the video that the panel was flexing, and left a dent after the drilling. There is no reason to do that. Just let the drill bit do its work, without excessively forcing it into the metal.
Pressure applied should be dictated by the strength and hardness of the material. For the most part (on bodywork at least) a lower pressure should be applied. I see people forcing drills into material all the time, achieving nothing other than making the drill bits slip in the chuck, doing damage to the material or drill and making everything overly hot.
Also, just an idea, drill a smaller pilot hole first to reduce the potential for slippage and denting of the metal.

It's so funny to see these range from $3 to $65.... I picked up my set for $4.99 shipped of eBay. I can't imagine the suckers who spend $65 for these things lol

[KalistaPierre]

Bro best video on this install I watched it and added 2 on each side and I’m so damn hyped thanks a bunch! It’s first time ever modifying anything and I’m a very feminine girl I didn’t even break a nail!

[mkiss]

it hurt me a Lil to watch him just drill his fender like that

[HoaPham-zsmh]

Omg yes, I didn't know this existed. I have a gaping bumper and this is perfect!

[erickmarte]

Ok but how is the video quality this good and the presentation being an 8 year old video
