Chin spoiler question: Does this look right!???

Bullit79 · 06-23-2013, 12:24 PM

But is it supposed to sit that far back? And are you supposed to be able to see the rivets sticking out like that? From the other pics, it looks like the spoiler should be up front and I'm guessing the rivets should be hidden behind it. Also I'm wondering why the rivets are installed from the inside out.

It is too far back b/c you can see the slots on the left where it is suppose to go.

Actually that is part of the bumper the chin spoiler is missing.

**** my life

Well in the mean time I might paint the rivets black since they are kinda noticeable. I don't really need the chin spoiler, but something just didn't look right here. When I finally get around to an oil change, I'm going to take a closer look what's going on back there.

Just cut the rivets off.
