Default Front bumper in a saloon

I went up to Scunthorpe on wednesday to collect a front bumper and after asking advice on here we tried to fit it in the car after feeding it through the rear windows, however, driving some 200 odd miles like that was a no no.

Karen my other half suggested we put the rear seats down and feed it in through the boot.

I have to say it fitted perfectly, it just needed something on the corner to prevent it banging on the roof lining, a woman's touch was all it wanted.
