I didn't mount mine so I can't help through personal experience. I can take some pictures of the mounting and post them. If this is a DIY install, keep in mind that the shop that installed mine were experienced with these bumpers and it was still difficult. As I mentioned, most of the alibaba/aliexpress vendors will work hard to help so you may want to also contact them for documentation. Don't give up. You will be happy with the result.

Ok thanks for all your help. Photos would be amazing and I will contact the vendor for some fitting instructions. Will probably end up taking it to the local garage to see what they can do.

Monsoon rains hitting this morning from a tropical depression. Such is life in the Philippines. As soon as (if) there is a break, I will back it out enough to take some photos and post them.

In the UK frontal protection is not allowed from 2008 cars. I don't know the full details but you can look it up. There's a few posts on here if you search.

Water is receding.

Should be able to back the Jimny out a little to get some pictures of the mounting today. Hopefully you have been able to research what Kirkynut mentioned.
Update:
These looked good as I was taking them but not sure they show much after actually looking at the pictures.
Let me know if they make any sense.

Thanks so much for taking the time to post the photos. I was aware of the law kirkynut mentioned, however, as my jim is an 07 reg if there was to be any issues I would probably just say I bought it with the bumper already attached.
I'm still not completely clear as to where the lower mount attaches - I assume it's to some part of the chassis? Also was there any drilling required to attach either the lower mounting or the bumper itself? Also - does the front bumper attach to any part of the car or is it solely attached by the lower mounting?
Thanks again for all your help!
