Should just clips on the sides then screw into the bottom of the bumper

they arent the same shape as the standard one they are the ones with the 3 badges that are just flat, normally just screw through into the bumper but cant see a way of doing it with the corsa rear bumper

i had to make up some L shape brackets to fit the flaps to the pre97 rear bumper.
i fitted the bracket to the bumper mount and then just riveted the mudflap to it.

yeah i've basically made 2 L shape brackets for each rear mudflap, 1 to go on the bumper mount, 1 further round the curve and the top of the mudflap is held on by the sefl tapping screws you get with them.
very secure havent moved or come off yet, they have been on the car about a year now
