Help on rx8 bmper

Hi guys. today i park head in with my 8 and scratch my front bumper lower part.
I do not have any body kit. When i touch i can feel the scratches. Then i realise that the piece of plastic which is fix below the bumper came off. Not the whole piece but some part. Now there is a gap.

Anyone encounter this? Where can i fix this?

it happen to me last time. Send back to MM, they put additional screw to the plastic plate and secure it.
Alternatively, its good reason to add body kit!

Try this - press and hold the boot release button for at least 2 seconds. It's a common 'problem'...

hi , there is a small button inside yr passenger dashbox ( u can only see it on the right corner after opening the dashbox ). This button control the opening of the boot . It is suppose to be used as a security function. u might want to chk that first before going to MM.
