Your Nissan's bumper helps absorb and distribute force in the event of a collision. Even though most people don't give their bumpers much thought, your bumper plays an important role in protecting your car, you, and your passengers.
A bumper may seem pretty straightforward from a typical driver's perspective, as you can only really see its outer shell or cover. But underneath, your full bumper system is made up of many carefully designed components, which may vary from one Nissan vehicle to the next. Sometimes, the bumper cover attaches onto the front grill of your vehicle with a bracket and several bolts, nuts, and grommets, which are called Bumper Cover Retainers or clips.
If your vehicle is in a fender bender or significant collision, your bumper might sustain damage that goes beyond the cover piece, which may compromise the aesthetic of your bumper cover but also the soundness and stability of the hardware holding it in place. In such cases, replacing hardware components under your bumper cover, like the brackets or the Bumper Cover Retainer, may be necessary.
To ensure that your bumper has what it takes to distribute impact energy and minimize damage, you need replacement bumper assembly hardware that's strong, sturdy, and engineered for your specific vehicle. Improper fitment or inferior construction might decrease your bumper's shock-buffering capacity, which could increase the likelihood of extensive damage if your vehicle is in a collision.
If you're ready to install a replacement bumper cover or change out your Nissan's entire bumper assembly, ensure that you have the right number of Bumper Cover Retainers handy, and potentially several extras, too. These Nissan bumper cover retainers can ensure that the bumper system stays put, protecting your vehicle from impact while also preserving its visual appeal.
Refer to your Nissan owner's manual to figure out how many Bumper Cover Retainers you may need, or trust the Nissan experts near you for professional installation services. Whether you decide to replace your bumper hardware on your own or leave the job up to the experts, be sure you purchase top-quality parts for your vehicle.
