Read and understand all instructions before installing or using this product. Your BumperShellz™ have been specifically
designed to fit your truck, so no modifications to your original equipment bumper should be necessary to successfully install
your BumperShellz™. If you are uncomfortable installing the BumperShellz™ yourself, please contact a qualified professional.
If after reading these instructions you have any further unanswered questions, please check out the FAQ's on our website.
You may also call our toll-free number (844-918-3688 EXT 2) for help between 8 am to 5 pm Pacific Time M-F. Any

installation of this product.
•
If your bumper has any significant pre-existing dents, you may want to remove the bumper and try to pound some of these
out. Small dings and rust can usually be directly covered by BumperShellz™ if trim lines between plastic trim/step pad and
exposed steel bumper are in their original shape. A distorted bumper will negatively affect the fit of your BumperShellz™.
•
Your BumperShellz™ are assembled to your bumper by tucking the perimeter flange under the existing plastic trim pieces. It
is usually sufficient to lift the edge of the trim in these areas with a non-scratching pry tool and progressively sliding the
flange underneath the trim and, unless otherwise specified, should not require removal of the trim.
•
Your BumperShellz™ are secured in place with 3M™ Automotive Acrylic Foam Attachment Tape. Optimal temperature for
installation is between 20°C (68°F) to 38°C (100°F) and
hair dryer or heat gun may be used at your discretion to warm the bumper surface. BumperShellz™ should be acclimated at
"room temperature" prior to installation.
•
Make sure your bumper is clean, dry, and free of debris. Use a cleaner that will remove oil/grease to clean bumper surface,
followed by wiping the bonding surface areas of your bumper
lint-free white cotton rag or clean disposable toweling. Do not use shop rags which may have dirt or oily residues. For
superior results use 3M brand Prep Solvent 70
NOTE: We recommend Dry-Fitting all BumperShellz pieces to their specific locations BEFORE removing ANY of the
red backing strips from the tape. Make sure all pieces are correct, i.e., you have received all pieces shown above,
with or without sensor holes and/or fog lamp openings, color/pattern is correct, and that all are undamaged. There
should not be any (or extremely minimal) bumper surface visible once flanges are slid under trim and sensor holes (if
present) are centered over sensor trim. Dry Fitting is also good practice for lining up each piece and guiding it into
place, visualizing how to do it when the backing strips are removed and the tape is STICKY. Note that once the
backing is removed we cannot give full credit for return.
• Detach entire lower valance panel using 7mm socket to remove
screws.
• Start with either left or right BumperShell and peel red backing
off tape strips on the back surface.
