Drywall screws?

How ghetto is your ride? If its a beater, I am the master of holding parts together.

Seriously though, I have seen body kits that have been screwed into place from the underside when they don't quite fit correctly.

My Nissan does the same thing....its just something we deal with

So if we take some new self tapping screws, it should be better?

It really puts my car out of shape.

There was a thread on this exact topic

Basically what you do it take the bumper off.. the little metal tabs on the actual car are probably bent down.. hammer them until they are perfect, do the same with your bumper. then go and buy brand new hardware at Lowes and put the btich together
