Which holes do the rivets go in the side flares and the fascia? There are 3. Or do they go in the 2 smaller? Do I use the same rivets as the ones for the top black trim?

Yes it was very hard to shoot.. I used plastic sealer before base and the paint came off in huge pieces. So scraped all the paint off.. Then used a good adhesion promoter. Reshot. No problems. The splitter was never meant to have paint on it so take extra care.

The bumper has a primer on it so no adhesion promoter necessary. Just a good sealer.

Appreciate the response... I won't be shooting it myself, a friend will. But good to come armed with some knowledge at least. Hopefully it goes smoothly, def going to need some clear bra for this I think...

Yeah clear bra definitely. Screw rock chips. I was going to paint mine like everyone else is doing but being on a black car it wont be as noticeable.
