Pushpins on the bottom, bolts in the trunklid area, screws in the fenderwells, one hidden screw pointing straight up in each fenderwell. make sure everythings tight

I've checked bottom push pins and found only 2 are attached... the 3rd one is missing. interestingly, the hole is not close to any thing that I can attach pushpin to...

I've attached a snapshot for your review

Thanks for your assistance

i dont think you realise the amount of force that is put on your car when it gets hit even in a small fender bender. your bumper is just ABS plastic things are going to warp. its never going to be the same. im willing to bet the foam pre bumper behind the abs bumper is also damaged which will drastically reduce absorption if you get rear ended in the future.
