You got sloppy holes in your bumper to arch liner area? I used chunkier rivets and put a metal washer on the far inside surface for the rivet to swell up against, gets a much better fit then the factory arrangement ever would have.

Drivers side only and yes, and I had arrived at the same conclusion, I'll buy a rivet gun and some repair washers when I get back from Colorado.
Dammit
That's clever, no doubt, I'd rather not pull the entire bumper off though - the "fold the plastic around the tab" thing looks much easier to do in-situ, and the tab is almost all there, it's just that the hole is slightly too large which enables the plastic-rivet to pull through. I'd like to add back some material then drill the hole again, shortly before riveting the whole thing back together.
