so if these guides bolt onto the quarter panel and not the bumper itself why would you have to transfer it from the old rear bumper? wouldnt it stay bolted to the quarter panel and snap into the new bumper?

i will open her up and take a look and see if this is broken, thanks!

+1 and the rivets that you hav to "drill out" are the same size as the front right?

The bumper is attached two different ways...

On the sides, the brackets are bolted to the car.
Then, the middle of the bumper has that long bracket provided in the kit that is fasten to the bumper with rivets (also provided), it also supports the marker lights harness...
Said brackets has studs that go through the tail light panel and you access the nuts from the inside of the trunk.

Nothing complicated here.

Not sure the size of the rivets...

There might get a lot of confusion. Just open her up and look around...
