exterior bracket to hold fender in place?

I have a replica Ridox front bumper and the fitment is pretty good.

The only real issue I have is bolting it at the top edges to the fender, from inside it has been a PITA for the bolts to properly hold.

I have seen especially on race cars, drift cars, etc.. where there is this clip/bracket that is attached to the fender and bumper. I wouldn't mind the look.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? if so is there anywhere I could buy something like this or would I have to custom make it myself. Also if anyone has any pictures of something like this, I have seen some Supra's with them but can't find the pictures.

I think you are looking for Aerocatches

You would attach a pin part to the car that the catch locks into. The same as many use on aftermarket bonnets.

I know what he means.

You attach a part of it to the fender, and a part to the bumper. Its a sprung catch. A lot of drift cars used to use them so they had "quick release" bumpers.

Here you go.

The pin part attaches to the body and the plastic over part to the bumper.

A coventional bonnet aerocatch wouldn't work due to the way a bumper attaches to a car compared to a bonnet.

To OP: I know the type you're talking about, the ones Listy mentioned as being used by the drift scene. I can't readily find anything like that, but here's an alternative for you to try that look quite smart (scroll through all the pics).
