Default mad flap thing on front spoiler...

You know on the front spoiler there are two little mud flap like things hanging down on each side?

I scraped one coming out of a multi-storey carpark yesterday, - it seems that one of the rivits has come off.

Any solution? Shall I just use a good super glue or ask a dealer to fix it back on properly during the next service or something?

the other side is tight so I dont think its going to fall off

Mines the same, just get a self tapper and screw it back onto the undertray, should do the job.

They are part of the aerodynamic design of the car and fairly important especially at speed. Worth fixing it right.
