Exterior parts are a rapidly growing automotive industry segment and a core component of our business. Increasingly, plastic is being used to lighten and strengthen vehicles, while lowering costs, shortening assembly times, and improving the vehicle’s appearance.
Nifco manufactures and assembles exterior parts found throughout the vehicle's exterior, from doors and windows to under the hood and bumpers.
Nifco's insightful fastening technology has made bumper retainers a tool-less, one-fastening process by using Nifco’s plastic clips. Bumper retainers are often set in 4 locations within one vehicle and traditionally use metal tapping screws to fasten a bumper to the vehicle's body.
Nifco plastic clips have been proven to save OEMs and Tier 1s' weight and assembly speed. Nifco bumper retainer’s key design features are serviceability, waterproof abilities, reducing components, and flexible hinge structures.

The self-sealing bumper retainer offers a smarter, more efficient alternative to traditional systems plagued by costly inefficiencies. Multi-material designs and extra components increase production expenses, while reliance on Felt Sealers compromises long-term watertight integrity as seals degrade over time.
Installation is often complex, requiring power tools and multiple steps that slow down assembly and raise labor costs. By eliminating the need for Felt Sealers and simplifying installation, the self-sealing bumper retainer delivers a more durable, cost-effective solution that enhances both manufacturing efficiency and product longevity.
