How do I tighten my Renegade Fender Flares. Some Riverts have popped out and the silver looking ones that appear to hold the fender on, maybe faux, spin freely. NAy help would be appreciated.

Replace the plastic rivets that hold the flare to the panel. The "silver looking ones that appear to hold the fender on" are only for show, no functionality.

Some of the silver looking ones have come loose and spin freely. I understand they are for show, but how would I tighten them so I don't loose them.

Pull the flare off and add some glue to the stud where it protrudes on the back side of the flare. I think some gasket maker would hold them nicely.

x2 what neatus said

basically on the other side of the faux rivet it just goes through the flare and is retained by a rectangle tab of metal

go ahead and order a dozen or so pin retainers for them


Who's got a link to the round pin type retainers? not the rectangle ones for the front edge of the flares but the round ones that go from the top front to the bottom rear from flare to fender i need to order half a dozen or so myself

I found similar rivets that just push in and are very smooth at AutoZone. The tires don't seem to rip them off as easily and it is cheap for a whole box of them. I would just keep em in the glove box and just replace em as they got ripped off. I don't have fender liners anymore so I dont use them anymore
