The libby hit a guard rail and the flair popped off. (sounds like a song) Anyway I got some plastic rivets and reinstalled it and it fell off going down the highway. After reading some posts I see there is supposed to be a clip that also holds it on??? I didn't see no clip. Any idea where this mystery clip goes and where I can get it. Also the NAPA # is 7702871 right?? I may just end up screwing the flare to the body but would rather not. Thanx

If there is "no clip" to see, how would you ever see it?

Did You mean to write I didn't see any clips? I'm only kidding, just wasting time at work.. :lol:

Yeah there are some little clip type things that pop into the bumper/from end in the lower part of the flair. They slide into some slots in the flair. I wouldn't know what to call it... You sure you got big enough rivets? I would think they would hold it on...

There are a bunch of clips that you have to install on the inside of the flare. With the flare off, you have to push the clip into the slot on the flare. Once all those are on, pop the flare back onto the body. Finally, take a rivit gun and rivit the wheel well back on (If your running them). Sorry if it is not detailed enough, I am tired from work.

I honestly don't know... hopefully someone else has done it already and can tell you.
