Start by removing the parts to replace. It can be bumper front and rear. You can find the bolts for cover in the wells of wings and under the cover image below. Remove the screws and loosen the lid. Depending on the application, be sure to remove all the lights attached to it as lights, side marker lights, fog lights, etc. Now, make sure there is nothing another by taking instead as a grid or a plate of licensee. Carefully remove the front bumper cover and set aside. Hardware convenient, because you'll need it later. Remove the rear bumper the same way, and the trim panel just above the bumper (if applicable).

Take cover replacement and carefully align the car and check the Assembly. Some units have 3M adhesive to help keep the helmet in place during this process.

They will be more visible on the sides for matches to the front fender or very Where do you draw the hood. If you notice one side has a higher point in these areas than the other, try to move the seam to cover the increase in very small increments until there is no difference. The seams must be the same width as the other seams on the car, especially as big as the vein of the wing to the door, or Fender closed the hood. Using the same width of the seam will create a "continuous" look for the finished product.

If the seam is small, you try to push the parties towards the front of the vehicle to free the space. After the face is adjusted, look to see if the walls are lined property. If you are satisfied with the assembly that screws into the holes and tighten. Start in the middle and work your way to the parties to ensure that your line looks fine. If the kit comes with 3M adhesive on the back, ready to join the car once the alignment is correct. This will keep the helmet in place and allow seems to be less in width.

In certain circumstances, unfair and unfortunate, you can find your kits do not line up, after all these adjustments.

We hope that you will not experience any of these types of problems because they tend to be resolved on a case by case.
