What store can I get this from, I need to pick this up TODAY.

Easy to put it on and off the car. Yup this is what I ended up doing. It would be nice to have quarter or half turn fasteners, but its not a big deal. It takes me no longer the 60 seconds to remove the installed mirko. Anyway, last night I got a coat of paint on. Tonight, I'll wetsand with 1000 grit, shoot another coat of paint on and let dry for the night.
