Default bra install questions

I purchased a bra minus the hardware last yeat to install this summer, and purchased the supposed hardware from a local dealership. The kit however, was missing the bottom to snap button screws. Does anyone either know the pt no. or have any extra sitting around. Also, an explanation of how those go on would help me out as well

The replacement part package does not come w/ the lower snaps. What I did was go to the hardware store and the local craft store (Michael's) and bought the raw materials to make the kit.

1st find the snaps w/ a large enough hole in the center to accomodate a screw at the craft store. Then purchase the self taping screws like the stock ones. Using the screws, screw the snap onto the body of the car in the lower most hole of the lower front fender. I had to take a bit off the circumference of the screw head to fit inside the snap. The trick is to find the correct screws, but your local hardware store should have some that fit.

Hope this helps.

All this trouble because the kit doesn't come with it. If this is true, it sucks

I actually have one of those lower snap things, I now just need one more

I really don't know how to put one of those things on, but I do know from experience that it only takes one hand to take them off.

I know its a long shot but what about stores like this one? http://www.rochfordsupply.com/..._3151

Maybe you could find something similar, I would try if the dealers can't find anything for you...

Btw I have no clue what the part looks like.

Bottom screws? Mine only has two buttons that go inside the tirewell.

Are there supposed to be snaps on the lip of the car or something?

I bought a used one last year and the seller just ordered a hardware kit for the regular Integra front mask. I believe he had to buy two of them. I'll try to contact him and the get back to you guys.

Edit: Spoke to the seller, all he got was two kits from the regular Integra front mask.
