rivet it to the lip on the backside of the bumper. Maybe use those black plastic tab things. I have seen that done, doesn't look ricey. I just leave mine chillin tho. I got them held forward with zip ties to make sure they don't get pushed back and run into the tire or anything, which is highly unlikely anyways.

Yeah just drill a couple of small holes in the blitz front in the fender well, and use black zip ties to attach it to the bumper. That's weird though, my blitz front didn't have a huge gap between the black plastic and the bumper. One side was a little looser though so I had to zip tie it.

i cut mine off.. hehe. i don't have an aftermarket front end or anything, i just cut off the splash guards when i was putting in my CAI. i think it's kinda cool b/c you can totally see the end of the CAI and the filter if you look into the wheel well from next to the driver's door. looks pretty neat (especially if you get a neat lookin filter). kinda makes the sounds from the intake louder too. i'm gonna get an aftermarket front eventually too btw. shouldn't have any problems being that there's nothing that has to match up with the bumper. i'm sure there's prolly some minor side effects of takin them off (gettin water an junk thrown around a bit). but i haven't really had any problems

if you wanna cut them just take off the plastic screws an junk. there should be a notched area going straight across the splash guard about where the bumper meets the fender if i recall correctly. mine was partially torn along there anyways.
