FITTING FOR GT ONLY:
1. Open the boot to remove the plastic light cluster trim. Carefully prise the plastic clips from each trim (caution these
clips break very easily). Ease the trim from the body to reveal a bolt fixing – remove fixing.
2. Remove 3 bolts from each wheelarch and 2 bolts from the undertray. Unclip the plastic skirt from the lower edge of the
bumper to reveal 5 more bolts, remove these.
3. Starting at bumper tips carefully pull bumper outwards to release from clips along side panel, repeat on other side and
then pull the whole bumper rearward to release from the clips along rear panel. Disconnect any sensor wiring.
4. Disconnect the exhaust from the crash beam leaving the rubber support(s) connected to the exhaust. Remove the
crash beam. Remove the plastic trim attached to crash beam for re-attachment to bumper later. Hand the beam back
to the customer but retain the nuts for later use.
5. Keeping the existing gaskets in place (sometimes the gasket comes off with the crash beam), fit the Main crossbar (A)
to vehicle using the crash beam mountings (additional sealant recommended). A small part of the plastic back panel
may need to be trimmed away to enable fitting. Place brackets (B) & (C) over the Main Crossbar (A) and attach using
original nuts (X) (liquid thread lock recommended).
6. Mount the exhaust hanger(s) onto the bracket(s) using fixings (D). Mount to both sides if twin exhaust.
7. Attach Neck Kit (ZN) and Electric plate (ZE) as per separate instructions.
8. Fully tighten all fixings to their correct torque settings.
9. Re-fit the bumper, remembering to attach wiring for sensors. Take care to ensure bumper locates between clips on
rear panel correctly otherwise bumper may be damaged when boot is shut. Insert the plastic trim that was removed
from the bumper beam behind the bumper and position loosely ready for attachment to the undertray.
10. Cut bumper undertray using the diagram below as a guide.
11. Attach the undertray to the bumper (whilst lining up the plastic trim) using the 5 bolts removed previously. Re-fit the
plastic bumper skirt.
Recommended torque settings: Grade 8.8 bolts: M12 - 80 Nm, M16 - 200 Nm Grade 10.9: M12 – 120Nm
