    Hey Dave: If your talking about the 7 cosmetic screws across the top, on mine I put a small dab of clear RTV on the short threaded area and taped each one down for about an hour. Nice Ride ! !

    LOL...Sorry Dave,,, I used Loctite "SuperFlex Clear RTV" Silicone Adhesive Sealant. You can pick it up and any parts store or any Weather proof Silicone sealant will work. Even Home use brands (Exterior use, Tubs/Showers etc..) But I would stick to clear...

    Thanks Steve, going to pick up some up later and try it. So just put a dab on the end and let it sit for an hour or so. Any other tricks?

    Thumbs up

    Yeah, I painted my skidplate a while back. I took off the screws. Before I put them back on I went to the local dollar store and purchased some gel crazy glue. It has work great.
    Peace.

    You might place a piece of masking tape or whatevers handy just to assure a flush setup and keep it dry for a day or so...Good Luck
