How do the 2 bumper buffers, bumperettes, attach to the bumper? Are they glued on to the bumper cover?

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Got a pic? Most 996 bumpers dont have bumperettes?
POST 3Original post
on a '99 look up from the bottom of the 'ette. There should be a hole for access to a hex screw. The screw holds by fitting behind a ledge in a aluminum extrusion.

My question is about the body-color bumperettes not the rubber ones. I have seen them on GT3 as well as other 2002-2005 996 cars.
POST 5Original post
I see. I was thinking that the mounting might be the same for colored and black ones. did you get a picture? You wouldn't think that they attach to the shell. my manual only lists up to 2001 GT3.

Sort of like this. Not my car but a picture I found on an ad.
POST 7Original post
