    I was wondering where do the wave washers go on the bumper. Do they go between the bumper and the bumper bracket or do they go between the bumper bracket and tightening nut? In the picture I have them installed under the bumper bracket between the bumper, but I might be wrong.

    You have it correct in the picture. Old Mustangs are done the same way.

    Good to know where they belong - I just found mine in a box the other day and had no idea where they came from
