1 General Information
With the following exceptions, MY 2004 WK Series Bumper Bars information carries over from MY 2003 VY Series
vehicles. For information not contained within this Section, refer to Section 1D Bumper Bars in the MY 2003 VY and V2
Series Service Information.
• Front Bumper Fascia Assembly
• Front Fascia Support
• Rear Bumper Fascia Assembly
• Rear Bumper Fascia Guide Assembly
• Rear Bumper Fascia Centre Support
The bumper fascia assemblies fitted to MY2004 WK series vehicles are constructed from polypropylene resin. Two styles
of front bumper fascia are available, depending on the Model Level. Model Levels 1, 2, 4 & 5 utilise one style, whilst
Level 3, SS Caprice adopts the second, sportier looking fascia.
Fog lamps are installed on all Levels with the exception of Level 1, which incorporate fog lamp covers in place of the fog
lamps.
Two attachment lugs and two support lugs for the fog lamps are moulded as part of the front bumper fascia. This running
change is introduced to improve the rigidity of the interface with the fog lamps.
NOTE
For Model Level designations, refer to Section 0A
General Information.
Five rear bumper fascias are available, depending on Model Level.
• Model Level 1, 2 & 5 Vehicles with Reverse Park Aid.
Vehicles without Reverse Park Aid.
• Model Level 3, SS Caprice Vehicles with Reverse Park Aid.
Vehicles without Reverse Park Aid.
• Model Level 4 Vehicles with Reverse Park Aid and license plate surround
Two fascia supports are installed behind the front bumper fascia. These supports are attached to the steel front bumper
impact bar assembly. The bar assembly is attached directly to the front side rails and is designed to assist in the
dispersion of crash energy and plays an integral role with the vehicle’s safety systems.
A steel rear bumper impact bar is also installed behind the rear bumper fascia on all models.
The rear fascia assemblies may include four rear sensor assemblies and wiring harness for Reverse Parking Aid (RPA).
NOTE
If the vehicle is fitted with RPA, a new rear
bumper fascia service part will require
modification prior to painting and installation. For
further information on RPA, refer to Section 12 F
Reverse Park Aid and Section 1D Bumper Bars
in the MY 2003 VY and V2 Series Service
Information.
