Step#3
Measure height of license plate to determine the best install height for the rear bumper guard. i.e. (In this scene the license plate is 13”-19.5” from the ground. As such the recommended install height for the rear should fall within this range).

|
Step#4
Wash the application area and dry completely.

Use the 1” blue masking tape to mark installation location. You may install the bumper trim under or above the tape. Walk away from the vehicle and make sure the tape is level all around.
|
|
Step#7
Make sure tape guide is level. If tape is not level your installation may be uneven when installed.

Step#8
Begin installation by pulling off a foot or so of the adhesive backing. Slowly work your way around the bumper using the blue tape as guidance. NOTE: DO NOT PRESS DOWN UNTIL THE BUMPER GUARD IS PERFECTLY LEVEL.
|
