Shims for bumpers

[Heinrich]

Just found out that the shims are missing on my bumpers. Been looking on realoem and allso a toothwasher is mentioned (fig. 20). Is that supposed to be outside the body or in the trunk? It is not show on the partlist for the front bumper.

It seems as the shims are avalible but how do I buy them?

It is between the bumper and the outside of the fender, keeping it at a distance indeed. P/N is 07 11 9 936 191 and you can order it from the dealer. That's for the rear, even though I removed my bumper to get rid of the front spoiler, I can't remember if there was one af the front as well. But since they cost peanuts anyway, why not order a few extra?

Thanks.

Well, just me. I am a detail fanatic, and if they were not there when the car left the factory, it must have a purpose
