INSTALLATION
The lower spacer nut is accessed through a plug in the
inner splash panel. The upper nut is access from the inside
of the nose opening.
Fit the rubber grommets to the body. Be sure the lip is
seated on both side of the fiberglass.
Fit the studs and spacers onto the bumper uprights or
jackpads . Note that the upper spacers and studs are
longer than the lower ones on both front and rear of the
car. Leave the nuts loose if the nudge bars (hoops) are to
be fitted.
Insert the bumper/jackpad assembly through the body
grommets and secure onto the frame/bracket with a lock
washer and nut.
If you have the rear nudge bar , the bar and uprights must
be installed as a unit.
The front nudge bar can be fitted separately or in unit with
the uprights.
Align and tighten nuts and bolts.
RETROFITTING THE FRONT NUDGE BAR
Tape the sides of the front uprights to prevent scratching
and facilitate marking.
