i installed my front bumper today and was wondering which parts are actually supposed to be installed and which are not since obviously not all are needed. i want to make sure i didnt forget anything or did anything wrong since i didnt get any directions with my kit and cant really find a good guide on here.
here is a link to a pic with all the pieces: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?act=attach...st&id=53808
in the top right pic i only used the 2 air duct pieces on the bottom, what are the other pieces for?
in the bottom right pic i only used the bottom right piece (the 2 air ducts attached to it) from that pic only the bottom 2 are for the front but i used the one on the right so whats the left one for? the rest are needed for the rear bumper.
also the pic on the bottom left i used pretty much everything there except the strip on the bottom since i didnt get it in my kit. where does it go and is it necessary?
also are any other pieces necessary that i didnt mention?
thanks for any help

I can't remember all the parts I used when I put my bumper on, but I think you used all the the parts needed.
Those ducts and other parts that you left out are for cars with different engines. Like diesels.
That long strip belongs to the bottom of front bumper. I recall that was for supporting the bumper somehow.
Edit: But I think you should have used one those two parts for supporting rear bumper in the top right corner pic. Can't remember for sure.
Edit:2: Oh, you put only the front bumper. By bad...

It goes over the bottom of bumper, not on the car. So you can add it afterwards if you can get it...
