I had a problem with one end coming off. the plastic hook broke off, so I pulled the rubber back some from the bumper, and used a hack saw blade to cut the hook off flush. then drilled a hole from the back side through the slot and used a washer and screw. I drilled into the plastic, not the rubber strip.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works

I trimmed too much away from the impact strip, but there you go.

I ended up pulling that off from the plastic mounting strip, securing those two tight and pounding the impact strip on.

Thanks all who helped.
