No one but me would probably have known it was there, but I was also worried about not getting it snug since I did not want to use the turnbuckles. I could push it closed, but the screws just would not pull it closed before spinning.

Picture 2. So in the corner I figured out that I could get my fingers up behind the lower part of the bumber. So I used two small #10 x 3/4" bolts and nuts. This pulled everything real tight and made it fit perfectly. I just held the nut with my fingers and turned the screw to tigthen. I did not have to do this on the dirvers side as it fit perfectly, but did it anyway just for extra strength.

Picture 3. The screws provided by Stillen are #10 x 1". I bought some more of same size, but could not find black. So used Stainless Steel. I also bought some #10 Zinc washers to use on all the screws and bolts. While they should not rust, I wanted to give them a little help and make everything all black. So painted all the screw heads and washers with Rustoleum Flat Black. Last picture is all done. Total of 13 screws and 4 bolts. Solid as a rock.
