If you don't use all of the fasteners then the heat of the engine will warp the fiberglass liner to the point of the the dzus fasteners no longer lining up.

I don't know about the front, but I do know from other vehicles that the fiberglass will warp in the heat of the sun like in Florida or Texas.

Just a consideration before you spend lots of time and money on these.

My trunk liner has never warped? Or...has any of the Corvettes I've owned ever warped! But then again I have never lived in Florida or Texas! But we do have Sun here in California!
