The coroplast isn't "sticking" :-) it took me a decent amount of work to find a mounting method that wouldn't put holes in the car. What I did was take zip ties and cut holes in ONE layer of the coroplast, slide the zip ties in one hole and out the other. I have two on the big side, one on the bottom and one on the pointy side, the two on the big side go through the bumper and attach together in the back, the bottom and one on the point are attached to an I bolt that is fastened through a hole in the center of the fog lamp spot. I used the I bolt to adjust how tight the cover fit.

I have since bought nylon string and will be using that for the LGB on the corners with zip ties being used for the center around the license plate. For the UGB I have no idea what i'm going to do yet, I will try to get pictures of my mounting setup next time I'm messing with it.
