I have 2 large pieces that seem to bolt to the lip of the fenders, 2 other pieces that bolt on the back end of the large pieces, 2 long skinny bars that I think go from one side to the other of the fender as 2 holes line up on the lip of the fender but I don't know where the other ends bolt to. Does anyone have a few pics of the way they are bolted together and how they bolt to the car? Thanks, Pete V Attached Images

These look like they hook under the lip of the fender because there are 2 holes on the fender that line up with the holes in the end of these brackets but I don't know where the other end bolts up to.

I don't have the fenders on the car right now. It looks like it should connect both sides of the fender to keep it from flapping in the wind.
