Got mine yesterday. The bracket just pulled out it was in with double sided sticky stuff. Started working on curve and will probable finish 1 side tonite. Just bought clips at local chevy stealer and $1.80 each. Will post pics when done.
So far write up has helped.

Dave,
Thanks for the great and complete write up in the email. I'll be placing my order tomorrow and installing next week. I think everyone that does these should post in a thread as a tribute!

One of the members converted the 3 files into PDF. It should be easier to send now

Finally done and here is a pic of finished product.
I did mount a little differently. They were made to mount on the C6 with the applied 3m tape. I tried screws and no matter how good the fit it pulled away with screws. Went to Pep Boys got some of the 3m body molding tape and it seems to work great. Wish I had tried that first.
Thanks to DeeGee

Good job
If the 3M tape holds it'll look cleaner on the inside of the fender

Ive got a whole roll of the 3m tape in the garage. Might try that first after reading about the "pulling away with the mounting tabs".
Mine are on order -
