Yup..he got it....where the stock bumper goes into the wheel well...there are 2 screws on each side...cant see them unless you look for them.....they dont say anything about silicone..i did that for my own security....AND...when i mocked up the cover..i noticed it tended to curl a little bit on the top of the bumper...so..i got some super strong black silicone pretty much all over it....helped it....holds it down very well...

yea i dont see why not. it will just take longer for the stuff to harden that you put on it. i know with that urathane you have to heat it up just so it will flow out of the tube.
