Well with me and all my wisdom I went through a snow pile at workas high as my headlights, well i completely almost ripped off that greyish color trim that runs from the top corner of the front end, all the way down and back up, like a smiley face. well its now hanging by like 2 rivets and the others just blew up, so now my license plate and that trim is just danglin there, whats the best solution causeI doubt I can find those rivet things... just some hardcore silicon caulk?
thanks all,

rtv alone might work, but i doubt it. you'll probably need to rebolt it through the holes in the bottom of the bumper, probably using some oversize washers to grab some plastic. if there is no plastic to grab, you might drill a few new holes where there is some. use stainless steel hardware to resist rust (available at Ace Hardware) ![Big Grin](https://dodgeforum.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
