Splash shield trouble Sign up here! Search this forum this category all forums for All words Any words Whole Phrase (search options) Auto Repair Home>> Automotive Repair>> Car Troubleshooting Milka New User Jun 11, 2017, 5:30 PM Post #1 of 3 (1346 views) Splash shield trouble Sign In So one of the splash shield clip came out and the hole is too big to just use a new clip. I'm gonna just replace them with some nuts/bolts and washers. More sturdy. I've replace the 1 clip with ziptie for now. Now the splash shield itself is bent out of the original shape. But there is still a huge gaping hole around it because the ziptie (and nut/bolt/washer in the future) is only holding the shield up in one spot. And it makes a wicked sound when car is going anything beyond 40mph. I tried taping it with some duct tape but tape keeps falling off. I would like to try other ways of fixing it myself before having to replace it at the dealer (dirt poor student here). Anyone has some brilliant ideas how to fix this besides taping it or replace the shield? 2013 Camry here. Any response/suggestion appreciated.
