INSTALLATION

(For ease of installation it is suggested that the wheel be removed)

FINISHING CAPS

Remove the 4 factory screws from the existing factory guard. Set 2 of these factory screws aside for later reinstallation. The remaining 2 can be discarded.
Because there is no external access to the interior push pin like on the rear guard, the front guard must be pulled off by hand.
Slightly peel back the red 3M tape on the finishing cap and fold back so it can be fully peeled after cap is in place.
Position cap, ensuring the top lip of the cap slides under the fender molding as shown.
If installing Gatorback Mud Flaps, reinstall the two factory screws on the underside of the finishing cap.
Be careful not to overtighten.
Finish peeling 3M tape and press firmly on the bottom and side of the finishing cap to ensure a proper seal.
Repeat procedure on passenger side.

MUD FLAPS

Before you install your Mud Flap Set, see the diagram and parts list for all necessary parts. Start on driver’s side.
Remove factory screw from wheel well hole #7. Note Factory screws on holes #8 & #9 will have been removed during finishing cap installation.
Install spring nut (h) on finishing cap hole #10.
Loosely install mount clip (j) on mud flap hole #2 using a cap screw (a) and flat washer (g).
Loosely secure mud flap through hole #5 into factory hole #11 using a sheet metal screw (b) and flat washer (f), placing a spacer (i) between the mud flap and factory hole.
Secure mud flap through hole #6 into spring nut on finishing cap hole #10 using supplied cap screw (a) and flat washer (d).
