I dont mind telling people how to do it. Although i think posting it up for people to see could help any potential thieves know the general whereabouts of all the cable ties etc if they check the site.

if you dont mind drilling a few small holes in your bumper (not visible on the outside if your worried about ruining it) then its quite an easy job to do. Takes a few hours but is worth it.

I tried to move my bumper the other day with quite some force and it was not moving for anything!!!

im sure the thieves will know plenty of ways to get ur bumper off, they will be prepared for things to possibly being stuck on.

its a great idea to secure everything up, no doubt ab out that.

one thing to do possibly is secure or glue a plate on the back with your details. just incase it is stolen.

best thing to do just now, is not to park anywhere out of view as our cars are easy to target, bits are worth the money and are relitavly easy to take off.

and if you catch one in the middle of it give him/her a dam good hiding!!!!!

teach them not too touch an st!

True but if it takes them a bit longer they more than likely will leave it to avoid getting caught in the act

true but it will take them alot longer to try and take parts if they are not easy to take off!!!

if everyone took the time to bond them on then i will guarantee that these pikey little $@&* would not be stealing half the stuff that has been mention on this site and over on fieststoc.com

I agree, and if they can't get it they will probably boot in the doors and panels just out of frustration....why, because they are scumbags!!

I wouldn't recommend bonding the rear spoiler. When the thieving pikeys piched our spoiler, they applied so much force that the top of the tailgate was bent inwards. Cost a bomb to have that put right.
