Default Bumper bracket - Where does it go?

Hey guys, I'm trying to get my car back together after some front end damage. I found these "bumper brackets/stays" on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...sting

Where exactly does that mount on the car?

Thanks in advance,
Jon

I don't believe so... The bumper support is mounted directly to the radiator support. Maybe the bumper stays mount the bumper to the bumper support?

If someone can take a picture of where these things go, that would help a lot.

they appear to be the ones that attach to your rebar/front bulkhead and just under the headlights.

i can't really tell from the angle of the pic, but i used to work in the parts dept at acura and the metal ones like that support the headlight from underneath.

They're right under your headlights.

They don't support your headlights tho because I ran my car without them for a couple months waiting for insurance to fix it

Thanks man. I had a feeling that's where they go. I have to take another look at my headlights and bumper. I didn't get them from Honda, and I'm not sure I'll have any way of mounting the bumper stays on them.

Are they supposed to mount onto the headlights?
