Improvement on self taping screws is to use those clip on panel nuts.

Mine are self tappers as well but I have had problems with them coming out. When I bashed the front I had som panel clip bolts at home and was looking at it and saw the holes lined up. Slip these onto the guard edge mark the hole take off drill replace then screw through the lot. Mine was the original to use edging and its been on there nearly 10 years. Still as good as new although the mud stains dont come off well
