• Wrap the outboard corner of the BumperShell around the corner flange of the
bumper and rotate into position, being careful to not let the taped areas
contact the bumper.
• If bumper has parking sensors and/or fog lamps, adjust the position of the
BumperShell to center the sensor within the clearance hole and fog lamp within
the fog lamp opening BEFORE pressing down on the tape.
NOTE: If the BumperShell is not going on with reasonable effort, do not use
excessive force. A flange is probably hung up somewhere and will need to be
tucked in to place before proceeding.
• Once in proper position, press BumperShellz™ firmly against bumper on taped
areas from inboard-to-outboard for at least 30 seconds to make sure tape
adheres to bumper. Repeat process for opposite side.
• Remove red backing from tape strips on center section and position over
bumper, centered between the two ends. Offset flanges on either end of
center section should overlap inboard edges of left and right BumperShellz™
and the "gaps" on overlapping flanges should be the same when installed
correctly. Again, if sensor holes are present, ensure these are positioned
correctly first.
• When satisfied the Center BumperShell is properly positioned, press taped
areas against bumper as before, also making sure firm pressure is used to bond
the overlapped joints together.
• Reinstall/tighten the screws to secure lower valence panel, sandwiching lower
BumperShellz™ tabs in between. If screw hole on the bumper covers have
become offset, carefully use a drill, or circular file to widen screw holes
appropriately.
NOTE for Maximum Adhesion: The acrylic foam tape used to adhere your
BumperShellz is "pressure sensitive", so making sure there is sufficient pressure
applied to each of the taped areas is vital to achieve optimum adhesion of your
BumperShellz™ to your bumper. It is also recommended that you come back a
few hours later, or the next day, to give each BumperShellz piece another pressure rub to ensure the best adhesion.
Allow the tape adhesive to set up for at least 24 hours before washing your truck. Maximum adhesion is reached
after 3-5 days in temperatures above 70 degrees, longer if it is cooler. Once the adhesive has fully bonded to a
properly prepared bumper surface, it is nearly impossible to remove the BumperShellz without damaging them.
Please refer to "removal instructions" in the BumperShellz FAQ section on the website, should removal be necessary.
Care for your BumperShellz™ like you would any fine paint finish. Use high quality cleaning products designed
specifically for car care.
•
Gloss finishes: Oftentimes, minor scratches can be buffed out on the gloss finishes. Rubbing compounds can be
used with a mechanical buffer, for deeper scratches.
•
Matte finishes are much more susceptible to abrasions, leaving a "glossy sheen" on the finish, which are generally
permanent. Do not attempt to buff out scratches/abrasions on your matte finish, as this will generally make the
damage worse. Avoid excessive friction when trying to remove anything stuck to the matte finish surface and
keep cleaning rags/water clean and abrasive free. Abrasive brush-type car washes are not recommended, as they
can abrade the Matte finish. Brushless car washes are acceptable.
