Chin spoiler issues
 
I bought my chin sppoiler back in February from American Muscle and the crappy rivets came out and its all floppoty now. I fixed it by getting some 1/4" nylon bolts from Lowes and bloting it in place. Anyone else have issues with the rivets popping out?

No, I used only like 3 rivets and the rest nuts and bolts

I used the couple plastic ones they gave me, but drilled a couple more bolts straight into the bumper for extra security. No problems with that.

I drilled the holes and put the damn thing on with those push pins and it fell off as soon as i pulled on it alittle to see if it would stay and off course it didn't. I used self tapping screws it's alot more secure and u don't have to worrie about someone ripping it off your bumper.

mine was fine until a dam racoon decided to run under my car at 70mph. fixed it with nuts and bolts. i guess now if i hit another one i'll be needing a new front clip.

I lost about 3 pins within the first week. I swapped out for nuts and bolts as well. Some of the pins were incredibly secure when I was swapping so I left them but most of them popped out with a slight tug.

+1. Thats what I did. It may cost more money but its not going anywhere.
