1. Clean and open the hood. Make sure that
the hood is free of any dirt or debris.
2. Trial fit Hood Shield by aligning the
mounting holes of the Hood Shield with the
matching holes in the hood. (Figure 1)
3. Attach supplied hardware to hood shield. (Figure 2)
4. Re-fit Hood Shield to the factory hood by aligning the rubber well nuts up
with the factory slots. (Figure 1) Attach Hood Shield to the vehicle by
installing the center mounting point first and working outwards. Tighten
screws just enough to hold hood shield in place.
5. Center Hood Shield on the hood and tighten screws using a Philips screw
driver until snug. Close hood carefully to check the fitment. If the Hood Shield
is not centered loosen the screws and adjust until it is centered and re-tighten
the screws.
6. Attach rubber bump-on to the factory hood where the corners of the Hood
Shield are closest to the hood. (Figure 3) Clean area first with isopropyl
alcohol and remove adhesive backing from bump-on and apply to the
hood.
