OK, once again, I need your help.

As my car basically never was a fully assembled car (at least for as long as I have owned it...) I am trying to assemble everything from scratch. I have bought some bumpers and bumper brackets, and the easy questions of today is: which one goes up front, and which one in the rear?

This is maybe just too easy for most of you, isn't it ?

The ones with the green go up front, the white ones are the rear

The rear over-rider supports (not in your picture) attach on the rear apron - if it hasn't been messed with, you should see a hole on each side where a bolt threads through into a bracket. The bracket is tacked on the back of the apron... If your apron has been replaced I would guess the mounts are gone.

Thanks, I have replaced the rear apron, and there were some brackets there; I will crawl under and take a picture tonight.

Its good to see you have the bracket covers. Many cars are missing these, and I don't think anyone reproduces them.

I will post you a photo of a rear overider support

I believe so. There should be a nut welded into them? I think I can see it...
