So I've got the goods Caps and strips for front and back my questions are many:
What size bots and nuts are needed?
Should it be installed one side then the other or the actual strip first?
How does the rear center stay on? - there is a hole in the bumper but I don't have a bracket. (maybe its missing?)
I thank anyone in advnce for any help. |

I couldn't find anything to hold the rear impact strip on either. There should be a small square hole near the tip of the right and left sides of the bumper. Insert the metal tab on the impact strip into the hole on either the right or left side of the bumper, and bend the tab in so it's touching the inside of the bumper. Pull it as taught as you can and insert the remaining tab into the remaining hole. Keeping the strip taught, bend the tab in like you did to the previous side. Install the caps and your good to go. My strip has stayed put with no probelms.
Good luck! |

Excellent - thanks, That was my first plan but I figured I'd ask before bending stuff. What are the best size bolts / nuts to go with? - Looks like if I bend the metal tab I will only need one bolt and nut per end totalling 4 bolts and 4 nuts. I'm thinking stainless with a small head and small washers / nuts.
thanks for backin me up!

Glad I could help Jack. As far as bolts go, what exactly are you going to bolt on? On my bumper there wasn't any place for bolts. And I think there was a threaded hole on the inside of the bumper at each end for the plastic end cap to be screwed into.
Hope that helps!
