Because of the size of the American bumpers, they need extra support.
These bumper brackets are attached to the upper mounting location of the overriders, pass through the mudguard or front panel and are mounted on the bumper bracket.
Many European Volkswagen Beetles are converted to the American model, but they often lack these brackets, so the bumper is not properly mounted. Do the right thing and give your American bumper the support it needs.
