The square plastic block has snapped off my GSi bumper, the one that holds on the block attached to hte wing.
AS you can see there is quite a big gap due to this
i've been trying to think of a solution but can't think of anything, as far as i can see it wouldnt be strong enough to just stick something in the bocks place
Any ideas?

if theres any plastic sticking out you could drill a hole in that, then drill two holes in the wing and cable tie it together
