The threaded plates form an integral part of the front bumper mounting system, providing secure threaded fixing points for the bumper brackets. Years of exposure to moisture, corrosion, road debris and previous repairs can leave the original plates seized, stripped or weakened, making bumper installation difficult and preventing correct alignment.

Manufactured to OE Match standards, this threaded plate set restores reliable mounting points while helping to achieve the factory-correct bumper position and panel gaps expected on a professionally restored Porsche 356.

What Does the Bumper Bracket Bar Threaded Plate Set Do?

The threaded plates fit within the bumper bracket assembly, providing strong threaded anchor points that allow the front bumper brackets to be securely fastened to the vehicle.

Their primary functions include:

• Providing secure threaded mounting points.
• Supporting the front bumper bracket assembly.
• Maintaining correct bumper alignment.
• Helping achieve consistent body panel gaps.
• Preventing movement within the bumper mounting system.
• Supporting the overall structural integrity of the bumper installation.

Correct bumper mounting hardware is essential for maintaining the appearance and safety of the front bumper assembly.

Why Replace the Threaded Plate Set?

After decades of use, original threaded plates often become worn or damaged.

Common issues include:

• Rust and corrosion.
• Stripped or damaged threads.
• Seized mounting hardware.
• Bent or distorted plates.
• Damage caused by previous accident repairs.

• Difficulty achieving correct bumper alignment.

Replacing the threaded plate set helps ensure secure bumper installation while simplifying future maintenance and adjustment.

Includes:
2 × 64450513105 – Front bumper outer brackets (LH/RH)
2 × 64450513305 – Front bumper inner brackets (LH/RH)

Why to replace: 
Front bumper brackets often suffer from rust, deformation, or impact damage over time. Corroded or bent brackets can cause misalignment, sagging corners, or uneven body gaps, affecting both appearance and structural support. Replacing them ensures the bumper sits correctly and maintains the classic Porsche contour and integrity.

When to replace:
Replacement is recommended during front-end restorations, bumper repainting, or after minor collisions. It’s also wise to install new brackets if you notice difficulty aligning the bumper or visible corrosion around the mounts.

Installation notes:
Always trial-fit the bumper loosely, align it to the body lines, and then torque fasteners securely. Use proper shims, spacers, and fresh mounting hardware or isolators to achieve perfect fit and long-term stability.
