OEM Hood Deflector fitting - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Just bought original corolla 2003 hood/bug deflector and can't figure out how to fit. Where can i buy the kit. Is it simple to install. Also to close hood, it requires a force on the deflector, so those fittings should be strong enough.
Appreciate is somebody have gone through these steps.

If it is one that you bought at an auto parts outlet, and the brand is made by AVS, then give it back. It doesn't fit properly, hood will not close, and you may damage the paint. Only the one offered by Toyota
seems to fit properly, and it's also a lot more expensive. I don't know who supplies Toyota, but the
"Toyota" logo is printed on one side.

Actually i got it from a friend and it is OEM Toyota.
I just bought hardware today from Toyota dealership for $22 Can,
which includes the fitting procedure too.
