Black cap on bumper bolt for VOLKSWAGEN Combi Bay Window (08/1972-07/1979)

The bumper bolt cover is a small aesthetic finishing element, but also functional, that serves to cover and hide the bolts or screws used to attach the bumper to the vehicle's body. These covers help give a cleaner and neater appearance to the vehicle while preventing the bolts from rusting or deteriorating due to moisture or dirt. It gives a more polished and uniform look to the front and rear of the vehicle by hiding the visible screws of the bumper. This allows for a cleaner and more visually appealing finish. The cover protects the bolts and screws from rust or corrosion, especially if the vehicle is used in humid weather conditions or by the sea. By covering the bolts, the cover helps limit the accumulation of dirt or debris around the fasteners, making bumper maintenance easier. The bumper bolt covers are made of plastic, as this material is lightweight, durable, and weather-resistant. Plastic is also easy to shape and color, allowing for different finishing options, such as black or chrome covers. To remove the old cap, proceed carefully to avoid damaging the bolt or the bodywork. To install the new one, simply align the cover with the bolt and push it firmly to snap it into place. Once installed, check that the cover is securely in place and that it is not at risk of coming off, especially when driving on bumpy roads.
