 |
|
Hi all, I have a bumper end which is brand new and I don't know what end in the front (and opposite in rear). Have nothing for reference but the marked code on the inside PP/EPDM and below it DX.
I think it is right front (driver's side) and left rear (passenger side)
Can anyone veryify this for me. I won it so will probably Karma it once I know what it is. Thanks

EPDM means ...ethylene propylene diene monomer
PP means... poly propylene
Both of these are types of plastic. The two plastics are blended to make the part
what the part is made of. I don't know what the DX means.

helpful would be -
a picture
and
a title that says something like "bumper end cap, help identify please" (pet peeve - nondescript titles)
Awesome of you to Karma it!
You can also just put a pic in the Karma post and I'm sure someone who needs one will know just what it is.

The DX means right-hand side (think 'dexter').
The left-hand one should have SX on it ('sinister').

Nice of you to think of "Karma-ing" it, Daizee. Hope you're well!
