Yea, that's how the first batch used to be installed. They revised it because it wouldn't stay on with only double sided tape. It's basically useless without the rivets. You can get an install kit from gmpartshouse but they are pricey. I think at least 100 from what I remember.

To top it off the only reason the back bumper is getting painted is because she backed that into a light pole

As far as I know, it's a GM designed specific install kit for the splitters. Guess it couldn't hurt to ask in the cosmetics section.

Are you doing the install yourself?

Because when I got my zl1 bumper it doesn't come with rivets, you are suppose to reuse the ones you have, but the garage had extras because they save them. It is really cool to see all the extra parts they had just laying around.
