The Parts List does show a different part # for each bumper bracket
and I don't know if they are marked.
The mounting point on the body for the bumpers in not that robust it
can be bent out of position; the bracket could be bent some too. Put a
longer bolt into the mount point and use a pipe or lever arm to slowly
rotate the angle of the mounting point until the bumper is level.

Subject: [Tigers] bumper alignment
Hello,
Friend Gary Fish came over with his newly chromed bumpers mounted on his
black Tiger. Nice!
Except.....that in the front, the side parts were at a 45 degree pointing
down and the front pointed up. After sorting through my extensive collection
of junk front bumper brackets, we found that they were handed, and tried
mounting the bumper, swapping the brackets from one side to the other.
Didn't seem to make a difference.
Is there anything written on the subject? Any ideas what we are doing
wrong? BTW: my bumper has not yet been replaced with the new one (been on
for
quite a while) and it suffers from the same sort of issue.
Please help.
