as you can see from the 1rst pic i posted, the hole in the bumper rubber is much smaller then the collar and i tired soo hard getting it in there and i couldnt.

my question is this, when i go to a shop to install the Teins, do you think it will be a problem for them to put the collar int he bumper rubber?

i'm askin cuz i dunno much about this stuff yet and i just want to clarify that everythign is right.

basically, is the collar being out of the bumper rubber a problem or no?

are you sure its the right peice? on the peice thats together, do those two peices budge?
try putting the metal peice on something hard like cement than put the rubber thing over it and lean. If it doesnt work maybe you need to work out more j/p... maybe try lubing it with something.
