what screws to use to install splitters? - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #51368 4 posts Started by daazndood
hey guys. i started working on my splitters today. they are the DCW ones from dustin15brown. they have 4 holes to screw onto the front of the celica, but only 2 of them line up with pre-existing screws. the other 2 line up with empty holes. what kinda screws am i lookin for, for these splitters?
well SCREW you all then. jk. i guess i'll find any screw that fits
Hey man I've never installed the splitters but I did recently install an OEM lip. You may need to get some things called 'speed nuts'. They are basically a u-shaped bracket with a nut on one side and a bolt to suit. There are already some of these mounted along the bottom of the bumper but there wasn't enough for all of the spots I needed to fix the lip.
You should be able to find them at an auto supplier. I recommend taking one of the ones already there off the bumper and ask them for a similar size to that wink.gif
