Chances are that the bumper has either come unclipped or the clips that hold the bumper on have snapped... they can be purchased from your local citroen garage nice and cheaply :Y:

If you read a max power haynes manual it tells you how to remove the bumper so you can access the clips and refit it with the new ones!

As for your arches... it may be the same problem... that the clips are knackered... but you could hold it on with some strong adhesive...

Hope that helps

Your rock mate, only bad thing is I've already been to a citroen and they said the clips are attatched to the bumper and can't be replaced? :N:

Best thing to do with your arches is to take them off, take out all the rubbish plastic clips and replace them with bolts of similar thickness to the holes in the panel (the bolt head should slide into the same gap as the clips did) then take out your arch liner so that you have access behind where the bolts go through (should take 5 minutes) and then get a nut to tighten the bolts and therefore bring the arches fully flush with the panel.
Advantages are that ull never have to replace these as they cant come undone and as weve seen on a few occasions lately your arches cant get nicked.
