Abstract:
The present invention provides an adjustable fascia for a bumper of a vehicle which has an upper fascia member and a lower fascia member detachably connected to the upper fascia member. The lower member can be adjusted relative to the upper member to maintain the uniformity and consistency of the gap. In another aspect of the present invention, the adjustable fascia has an upper fascia member having an upper series of alternating indentations and protrusions positioned along a face of the upper fascia. Likewise, the lower fascia member has a lower series of alternating indentations and protrusions. The lower series is positioned on a face of the lower fascia and is adapted to physically communicate with the upper series such that the indentations of the lower series receive the protrusions of the upper series and the indentations of the upper series receive the protrusions of the lower series. A fastener is provided to draw the lower series toward the upper series thereby affixing the upper fascia in place after it has been adjusted.
