Default GM Bra on '97

Okay, I'll admit, I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer but putting on this GM bra can't really be that hard - or can it?

I managed to get it on, snaps, tabs and the like....however....there is this piece at the top of each fender well that snaps to itself and seems to have no place to connect. It just hangs there and I'm pretty sure that's not the way it's supposed to be.

THe hardware included with the bra provides two snaps on each wheel well and three snaps for under the front end. So what do you do with that piece?

Found a couple "rants" on the GM Bra instructions and the like, but nothing that seemed to address this piece.

Thanks

You have to bend the top snap thingy to make it hook on the fender.
