Triumph TR6 - rear bumper assembly

Hi to all in BBS land. I'm almost done assembling the car and I have a question about the rubber joiners that go between the main bumper bar and the two side pieces. they look perfect until I tighten the bracket assemblies then they start to push out and lose their shape I've seen alot of 6's like this I was hoping with new rubber joiners and hardware I would have better results Any advice is really appreciated Regards John

When I did mine with new rubbers and bolts, I recall that one side did not fit well and was raised up...away from the bumper. That was back in 2001. Now they are both flush/flat with the bumper. Totally forgot about that little mess. I guess they must have shrunk a little.
Maybe same for you???
