Upgrade Your Car with a 1.5M/1.8M LED Light Strip - Get a Dynamic Scan Start Hood Light & Turn Signal Light for 12V Cars!
Temu: £4.04 free p&p -'Payday Sale'
Supplier: Muxun LED via Temu
Ordered: 26.01.24
Arrived: 02.02.24     Good!
*** As many of you will know from reading my diaries, there were problems with the front bumper it drops leaving a slight gap below the bonnet/hood. The consequence to this is space clearance to the road or when going over speed humps. To rectify this problem the bumper will most likely need to come off and to be reinstalled and aligned, this space has proven to be quite noticeable.
In the past and currently, I have placed two light strips within this space to make it less noticeable.

The space could be down to the attachment brackets either being broken, bumper bolts maybe missing or both. I have sourced two salvaged brackets, (Stored on a shelf for a couple of years now - They just need to be fitted if this is the cause of the problem). The tightening of bolts, brackets and the new LED strips will help tidy up the aesthetics  ....

An order is the start of the process and to help motivate oneself into rectifying the problem that is well overdue.
