Set it in the sun for a while (a long while) to get it warm first or you could use a heat gun (low setting!) or hair dryer. Lots of these have been ripped trying to get them installed.

From your description, it sounds like you need a couple of screws with a 'snap' type head. This will replace the plain screw that you are seeing. These should come with the bra. If they didn't, a dealer should be able to fix you up. The bra that I had for my 91 SE didn't have these screws and the dealer gave me some. Hope this helps.

The bra for my 2k clipped into the seam btwn the wheel liner and the metal lip around the inside of the wheel well. As I recall, there weren't any obvious loops or holes to clip on to - just a flange that joined the liner and the fender of the car. The was a hole in the part under the hood. These are holes that are in the channels in the weld seam right where the fender connects to the engine bay.
