My plate is held on with them, when I pulled it off because I got pulled over (had the plate spaced A 7OM X and made to look like A TOM X) I nearly pulled the bumper off, and sent myself flying, they're that good. Also I have the fuse holder for my AMP stuck in the engine bay with one of them!

Hammer behind and hammer in front - quick tap and the bumps flush up fine - drop of paint to stop any rust and it'll flush nicely :lol:

Well thats what I did :shock:
