Best way to install front bumper?

%&%$&!$

Got it! But about ten minutes too late. Oh well, I ended up drilling the head off. Probably NLA, will check tomorrow. Probably would have been easier with the bumper in my hands but I would probably have had to drill it anyway

Thanks for the help!
 
I ended up drilling out the carrage bolt head of the bolt that holds the bumper to the long "L" shaped struts that bolt to the frame in the wheel well. The end that looks like an "L". I had to pull the rubber bumper aside to get to it. Hopefully I can put the rubber bumper back the way it was but looks doubtful.

Looks like, per Real OEM, the parts I tore up are available from the dealer! :)

I'm in the process of restoring and mounting my bumper that's in pieces. I am missing the alloy spacers that are between the bumper and the brackets. Seen in Bwana's post, most specifically in picture 4.
Does anyone have the possibility to take measurements on these so that I can fabricate my own?
