Get a "Photobucket" account, upload your pics to Photobucket, then copy the IMG code that is attached to the pic, then "Paste" into your thread on here... easy

Also interested. Mine dont sound quite as bad as this, but both bumpers have gaps.
It's a mk2. Fill it, drive it, enjoy it.  :smiley:

crowbar and expanding foam lol. the bumper brackets are not really that strong to be honest so you can just pull on the bumper and it will lift. or what I done was took off bumper and taped some washers under rear mounting hole (my gap was to small) to lift bumper just tape some washers under front mounting hole. remember to support engine mount crossmember before you undo bumper bolts.
