Hey guys,
I was looking to buy an aftermarket M perf Lip for my f30, but they dont come with the expanding rivets needed for the installation. Can someone lead me to the rivets on eBay or another site? Thanks

Had the same issue and spent so much time to line up the holes. A guy at a local hardware shop recommended some strong wire ties. Worked like a charm. Might want to give this a shot as the rep ones holes may not line up exactly

Get yourself a trim removal kit from eBay or autoparts, they are like $15 and use one of the tools that fits better, that way you won't break any
