   SO After taking my side wing off to access door bracket that needs rewelding come across the bumper bracket that holds front bumper on that looks like this picture.
   
   
   
   How are these held on are they bolted on as mine looks to be welded in place and totally rotten to the point if I unscrew the bolts I know its going to brake.

   I had the same problem on mine yesterday, I had to break the bracket in the end, mine is welded.
   
   What happened with yours in the end? I'm struggling to find a replacement.
   
   Thanks

   Like said above drill the old spotwelds out and fit the new ones with a nuts and bolts. Unless you have a welder and if you do get plug welding.
