NOTE: Before fitting Fender Flares remove any moldings, strips or existing flares from the wheel arch. If there is a body side molding, mark where the molding is to be cut, alternatively the Fender Flare can be cut to go around the molding. Be sure to allow enough room for the extrusion. No drilling of vehicle is required for Bolt-On Look Fender Flares. This is a non- drill product.

P AINTING INSTRUCTIONS – If Fender Flares are being painted; do not install edge extrusion until painting is complete. P rior to painting, clean all surfaces to be painted using clean water and a mild detergent, do not use lacquer thinner or any solvent based products. Wipe completely dry. Best results will be achieved by wiping the areas to be painted with a tack rag just prior to painting. Most automotive paints can be applied directly to the Fender Flares, however some may require a primer (check paint manufacturer specifications). Good adhesion will be achieved without sanding. Select a paint (and primer if necessary) that is suitable for rigid plastics PMMA (Acrylic). If using a paint system that requires baking, do not expose the product to temperatures above 70C (158F). Do not fit the extrusion or any of the hardware to the Fender Flares until the paint is completely dry.

STEP 1
Attach the extruded plastic bolts. Peel back white tape liner from the bottom side of the extruded plastic bolt and press until it snaps into place. Ensure inside of Fender Flares where the rubber seal is attached is clean, using the alcohol wipes provided. Wipe away any residue with a dry clean cloth.

STEP 2
Attach the included rubber seal to the Fender Flares. Peel back 2” of the adhesive backing and position on the Fender Flare. Attach the seal to the Fender Flare, peeling back a few inches at a time. Ensure pressure is used to secure rubber seal to Fender Flare edge. Attach rubber seal along the top leading edge of the Fender Flare where it will make contact with the vehicle body.

STEP 3
Trim rubber seal at end of each Fender Flare. Save extra rubber seal for install on opposite side Fender Flare and discard any excess once both sides are complete.
IMPORTANT NOTE : Trim rubber seal.

IMPORTANT NOTE
For rear area of rear Fender Flare. Trim rubber seal to initial contact edge of protective plastic stone guard / wind splitter attached to vehicle. DO NOT install rubber trim past this detail area.
