Default Screws Missing? Just Me?

My C7 came with two different front plate brackets...the in-line aero style which has a "Corvette" insert and the upper mounting style. Neither one has screws for holding them onto the car, and there is nothing in the grill to mount them to? Any help.

See your dealer. On receipt all of that stuff is in the back of your Vette in a large plastic bag. The brackets are there WITH the hardware. Sounds like the dealer gave you the brackets but not the hardware. See dealer to fix this issue.

I did read it, I thought the pictures would help you figure out exactly what you are missing so you can get the right hardware to attach the "aero" plate. I agree with the other response, this stuff was all in a bag together in the trunk of my car so I would ask your dealer to provide it.

Maybe they're in the back somewhere, i.e., you must have a screw loose.

Sorry bud, couldn't resist
