what causes the wave on the rear bumper of our carS?

[realitygt]

right in the middle on both sides?

just for reference >

Is that the factory original bumper? Mine isn't like that.... Beats me. :dunno:

It's called droop. It happens with all mustang bumpers up until '99. It's just due to the unsupported section of the bumper getting hot in the sun, and eventually drooping. It's notorious on the fox body cars, and happens pretty frequently on our cars. My car has a little droop in the bumper.

I've never noticed it on my car. I'll have to look.

Mine has it, but I think of it as a character spot...

I have a new rear bumper to go on mine. Is there something I can do to keep it from drooping? My car has a lot of bad areas! So far, she does not sag/droop though! Now it will though!

mine does too and in the past couple days it's noticeably gotten droopier :/

i wonder if anyone has made any kind of support for the underside of the top portion? :dunno:

i dont have one

but it happens on all mustangs. i've seen MANY terminators with it too

 

[Mustangmaster77]

I've noticed it since i bought the car, i dont know if theres anything to do about it :dunno:

I've thought about it. I think it happens when people set things on their bumper.

 

[realitygt]

I've never set anything on my car. let alone my bumper.

My car had major droop issues. When I took it off, not all the nuts were snug, so I think that may have been at least part of the problem. Snug up the nuts and you'll be in better shape than mine was in. :dunno:

One does exist for the Fox cars. Not sure about the SN95's though.
