How do I properly install the plastic molding on the bumper. I was going to try and figure it out but I dont want to snap the plastic parts. I already removed what was left of the old one.

Silvia front end so i dont know for sureBut try some double sided tapeThen use those funny nut'n'bolt combo things which come stock(the name escapes me) for the bottom. Literally their name is right at the tip of my tongue but i just cant bring it out....fuuk this is aggravating.

Off Topic are those Diamond Racing Wheels you got there?If they are which series are they?

I get asked that a lot here locally. Theyre actually Bassett racing wheels. Mine are 15's btw. http://www.bassettwheel.com/legends_mini.html

it kinda slides and snapps on there should be a metal bracket on the back with plastic tabs that pop into holes in the metal pannel and the top uses some double sided tape to keep the top part tight up aginst the metal pannel.
