EDGE TRIM INSTALLATION
A. Peel two to three inches of red vinyl backing away from Edge Trim
(GP1-0025) tape. Applying the adhesive side of the edge trim to the inner side
of the flare, affix the edge trim to the top edge of the flare (the portion
that comes in contact with the vehicle).
B. Press edge trim into place along the top edge of the flare in one-foot
increments, pulling red vinyl backing free as you continue to work your way
around the top edge of the flare.
Pocket Hardware Installation Procedures:
Put a Washer (WA1-0012) on each Bolt
(SW1-0067).
Put each Bolt/Washer combination
through a pocket hole in the flare, Bolt head and Washer on the outside.
Place a Nut (NU1-0019) over the end
of each Bolt and tighten, using a 1/2” wrench for the Nut and the supplied
Torx Bit (SW1-0052) for the Bolt. Repeat for remaining pockets.
Front Flare Installation Procedures (Passenger Side):
Fitment Note: If
factory flares are installed, remove before starting installation. Factory
fasteners require a T-15 torx bit. 
Using a T-15 torx bit, remove six factory fasteners from wheel
well. Retain for bracket installation.
Using a T-15 torx bit, remove two factory fasteners from mud
guard. Discard factory fasteners only. 
Install three clips (CL1-0028) onto the upper mounting bracket (RF2)
and two clips (CL1-0028) onto the front mounting bracket (RF1). Repeat same
step for driver side brackets (LF1, LF2).
Install the short mounting bracket (RF1) into front of wheel well,
using three factory fasteners and a T-15 torx bit. Tighten screws.
Install the long mounting
bracket (RF2) into top of wheel well, using three factory fasteners and a T-15
torx bit. Tighten screws.
Holding the flare into position on vehicle, use a grease pencil
or sharpie to mark sheet metal using the upper rear hole location as a guide.
Wrap one supplied tab
(MT1-0034) around inner lip of sheet metal over the marked location.
Once tab has been applied,
install one clip (CL1-0009) over tab.
Holding flare in position, start five supplied screws
(SW1-0056) into the top three and front two holes. Do not fully tighten.
Using an awl, align clip
with mounting hole and start one supplied screw (SW1-0056). Do not
tighten.
Start two supplied screws
(SW1-0056) into the two botton rear mounting locations. Fully tighten all
screws.
Edge Trim Tool Procedures:
Using supplied Edge Trim Tool
(ET1-0002), seat edge trim against vehicle by hooking curved end under edge
trim at one end of flare. Next, slide around outer edge of flare to the other
end.
Using flat end of supplied
Edge Trim Tool (ET1-0002), seat edge trim against flare by inserting straight
end between edge trim and flare at one end. Next, slide around entire edge to
the other end.
