Default piece that holds fender and bumper together after tab deletion.

i got a tab deletion from being to low and now my bumper and fender dont look good not being held together, i saw some people with a piece that goes on the outside of the fender and bumper to hold it together. does anyone know what this is called? where i can buy it?
i know i saw it on the cl member "dangys" car.

Yes, drill a pilot hole a tad smaller than the width of the screw itself and tighten her down with a hand screwdriver. With using a cordless screwdriver you might over torque the screw and strip the hole.

GL!

I think when it comes to either raising your car up a bit or using some tacky fasteners on a Lexus I would raise the car up.
