Well, first thank you all. This forum has been a very impactful part of my Bentley journey. I have a 2008 GTC (since jan 2023) and this happened the other day...as I was checking some things near the front passenger side wheel hub I noticed something that had obviously worked free and was now laying loose on top of the under body engine lining protector/cover. It seems to be a bolt that has an integral sleeve which can slide up or down the bolt as needed. I have attached pics below and was wondering if anyone might know where this mysterious little gift is supposed to reside? I would love to get it back into its home. The total length is 58 mm , the width of the bolt head is 7mm and width of bolt threads is 4mm. I appreciate any clue anyone would be willing to give!!

FWIW I absolutely love this car and this group of enthusiasts! All the best, Chip

 

Hello @CVBentley ,
I am 99.99% sure that, that is a fastener for the front bumper, it ties the bumper and fender together between both beams.
