i didnt put any fasteners through the brace. My middle two tabs didnt have any and I couldn’t see how it was possible with the outer ones. I tried a little bit and gave up fast. Once you get all 4 tabs under the parts they are bracing, jamb the thing forward as far as you can and put in the two screws.

I have to know what is the point of the taps, the bends, the brackets, if we are simply avoiding all of it? I saw another V today, the middle two tabs were missing, the outers ones were present. My exact car has all four tabs still in place. I do not know what to do with my plastic push tabs. hm.

As a follow up for this, I contacted the creator and gave him feedback and asked how he wants this thing mounted and he said pretty much what everyone else does in this thread. He said he may address the tabs and apologized for not including instructions. I guess he would have to make a new jig or something else but that takes time, etc... I thought it was nice that he was receptive to me asking him such exacting questions. Would recommend again even though I have yet to commit to install. I pulled everything apart and did not like everything I saw so I re-assembled and began searching for what others do.

This definitely works. This was confusing to me with arriving with no instructions and very little forum feedback. I did not install mine as the sag is really not that bad. But I have it for later.

having a forum presence these days isn't really justified seeing as how all of the forums want to charge you a vendor fee to even be able to sell anything. i, for one, am not going to do that so i'll just stick with facebook, email, word of mouth, etc. for sales.

It works. I got the first set made a year ago and gave him feedback also that the tabs don't work due to length and some instructions should be given with advice, guess that hasn't been developed in a year lol. Still a good product and simple to figure out.

Quick update. It works. It looks great. Probably only a pinky-gap under the hood to grille and under the headlights to bumper instead of a thumb-width. FU GM. Really. My car only has 50k on it and has lived in a garage for half or more of it. This at least looks acceptable.

Whenever I have the fog lights on, at night, when I hit a bump, that is when the bumper sag annoys me. I turn off the fog lights and it bothers me much less. Mine does not sag too much at 87k. Lucky me I guess.
