When installing my turbo etc, i seem to have damaged the hole present in the plastic bumper on the side that has a screw and base that goes through a hole in the wing (if you look at it from facing the wheel). There is a tab with a hole in, contemplated using a heatgun with more plastic or something to fix but looks like the screw and base are damaged too.

See just below, just to the left of the wing obvosuly tab is on the bumper.

Any ideas how to fix and what to use in place of the screw and base? - sure folk have damaged it before.



Also you can see tab in here

Drill it internal so you cant see it and cable tie

Do you mean the tab at the leading edge of the wing ? , if so I seem to remember that being a captive nut , bit like a "nutsert" or similar , M6

Or do I have the messy end of the stick

Yes chippo that's right.

Again Some time since I had my wings off could you not drill the hole out and tap to M8 , not sure if there's enough room for bolt head , but maybe a cap head bolt might be small enough .
Or maybe tap out with a 1/4 whit tap which is very slightly bigger than M6 and then be careful and fit a whit bolt.

It's more that the tab has broke that pulls the bumper up to meet the wing.
