are they brooken? put the butterfly piece in first and then put the nail part in 2nd. they come apart into two pieces. you might need to hold the splash guard and bumper together while you push in the clips to insure that it connects.

^ well that was quite useless. haha

OP, the DIY has a link to the CL forum where they used sturdier nylon rivets from Lowes.
