OMFG TT while driving home this arvo from Granville station, i heard flapping noises coming from outside, buh didnt take notice of it, but wen i went over a speedhump it scrapped, thinking wth my car is stock, pulled over to check it out to find out some cheaps fks, stole all of my clips under my car that hold the plastic panel/guard thing up, and now its just flapping around, && the most effed thing is that wen i popped by Honda @ Warwick Farm, to buy some, some guy goes theses clips are very expensive and sturdy blah blah blah, $30 per clip, *sigh* $30 each for a clip, like cmon,

im pretty sure its defect, if you remove it, ill double check that though,
hhmmm im accepting donations as well :) hahha just 1 clip from each member should do it :D hahha,

even cable tieing the middle sections is hard, you need the extra extra long ones ><
ive asked supercheap, they go they can get em, buh dont know how much T_T, better not be like $20 each or something,
looks like i have to put off buying my doubledin :(

is it the clips that hold the bumper to the plastic under the car?

is it the clips that hold the bumper to the plastic under the car?

sounds like the clips which rub off with aftermarket wheels, which hold plastic fender guards on to protect the electricals.

thats crazy dude.. you probably need to slam the car next time so those fokers wouldn't fit ey

try to relocate some clips for the mean time ..not sure if those ones underneath the fenders would fit

waiting for my dad to come back from phils so he can grab me a bunch of very cheap perfect replicas to cover my missing ones

I'm at supercheap atm (at work lol) got a heap of clips and bits and pieces, all different sizes, $4 for a pack, Repco and Autobarn should be the same.

I'd just be tucking it though

+1

all my plastic linings are cable tied or tucked haha

Makes getting at things easier, since the plugs are brittle and snap their heads etc

Just take a $20 and go to supercheap auto or alternative and go nuts.

Hey guys, as per my post above, this is what I bought. Took 3 weeks to turn up, but they are a perfect fit and much cheaper than the Honda rrp of $9 each.
