Hi!

Time to reduce the gaps.
Has anyone tried Poorboyz or MAC kits to get the bumper in place?

Ok, it looks like poorboiz only develops for 5th gen.

Are there any good alternatives in the market?
If everything else fails, read the manual!

Hey, yes, Merlin has used these:

I did email them about the possibility of a 4th gen kit, but received a slack response that gives me no confidence there will ever be one. :(

EDIT, just clicked the link you showed, looks like there is a 4th gen kit. :thumbup:

The kit; front, rear and headlight brackets arrived this morning.

No import duty levied.

I'll post pics when I fit it.

I’ve got the full kit for my 5G.

Arrived so quickly and it looks like a good bit of kit, just need to get it fitted even though I don’t have any bumper sag. Good to keep for future.
