I don't have one but expect to pay $100-200 for a factory cover when you find one.

Bumping an old thread. went to open my trunk and found the spoiler cap loose. Three of the 4 clips had failed. Age I suppose. Any suggestions for the caulk? Any long term considerations for using caulk? Like, will it be impossible to remove later? Or, does it impede access to anything else I might want to get to later?
New unpainted ones appear to run $150 to $180. If some silicon caulk does the trick might stick it back on - at least for a bit.

So they ran out of clips at your local dealer?
Caulk? It's not a Honda, Bruh.
Pay a visit to autozone... oreilly... they may have clips that will suit your need. Stay out of the caulk aisle.

dont you need to remove the cap from time to time to remove rear bumber cover? You might just need to bite the bullet and replace, or use some high strength velcro, but not changing the hieght could be tough.

The 03 clips are part of the formed part. To replace the clips you need a new part. Woody successfully locked his down with caulk. I'm not sure if you need to remove the cover to remove the rear bumper, anyone else know?
