I installed the whole kit except the hood scoop the other day. I didn't have a gun that would do 1/4" rivets. Does anyone have any install suggestions besides find a gun lol. Thanks let me know if you have done this etc.

That's real nice looking. Thanks for the pics.
When I was planning to purchase that kit (never did) I asked the same question to myself. I never did find the answer though...Maybe your local Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep/Fiat dealer knows? :dontknow: And Post up some pics when ya git'r done.

1 4 rivet gun | eBay
Maybe a tool rental place nearby? :dontknow:
Can you use the plastic rivets? What is it holding together?
how about a nut and a bolt?

Plastic rivets or fasteners will not hold that air duct on. Its actually pretty heavy all things considered not to mention you have to figure that it not only has to hold up its own weight but it has to hold up to the hood being shut/slammed down.
