CAUTION:
WHEN WORKING UNDER YOUR CAR ALWAYS USE THE RIGHT
EQUIPMENT FOR THE JOB. DON’T BE TEMPTED TO TAKE SHORT CUTS
OR USE INAPPROPRIATE SUPPORTS SUCH AS CONCRETE BLOCKS,
BRICKS OR WOOD. NEVER WORK UNDERNEATH A VEHICLE THAT IS
ONLY SUPPORTED BY A JACK. ONLY USE AXLE APPROVED STANDS OR
CAR RAMPS THAT ARE IN GOOD CONDITION AND PROPERLY RATED
FOR YOUR VEHICLE’S WEIGHT.
INSTALLATION:
1. Raise your car onto axle-stands or ramps that so you can easily work
under the front bumper of your vehicle.
2. Remove the plastic push rivet retainers and the two outer mud guard lips
from the bottom side of the factory bumper lip.
3. Clean the underside of the bumper to remove any loose dirt or damaged
hanging plastic bits caused by run-ins with parking lot curbs or ?. A
smooth surface is desired.
4. Place a piece of masking tape on your bumper nose at the point it wraps
and goes underneath and approximately on centerline. Determine the
centerline of the bumper by measuring the full width the grill opening and
dividing by 2. (Grill width/2) Mark this point on the masking tape.
5. Place a piece of masking tape in the approximate center on the splitter.
Draw a line at the centerline of the splitter using the center of the two
middle holes as the center of the splitter.
6. Place the splitter up to the bottom side of your bumper, aligning the back
edge of the splitter with the rear edge profile of the bumper lip and the
centerline marks on the bumper and splitter. Position the splitter so there
is no gap between the splitter and the back edge on the underside of your
bumper. (A friend is very helpful at this point) Verify the splitter is centered
and the overhang is equal left and right.
7. Using a ¼” drill bit or a Silver Sharpie® and the splitter as a template
guide, mark the bottom of your bumper cover at the fourteen (14)
locations indicated by the RED circles shown in Figure #1.
Check three (3) times that the marks and the splitter are aligned
correctly before drilling!
