the front shield facing towards the front of the vehicle slip the shield into
place aligning the front four holes with the factory clip holes that we removed
the plastic clips from in step one.
STEP 3: Locate the
1/4” rivets (the larger of the two included in hardware kit) make sure the
front four holes line up properly then using a heavy-duty 1/2” rivet gun insert
and install the front 4 rivets into the existing holes.
STEP 4: (NOTE: The
Installation of the rear rivets come with spacers to allow for proper
clearance. To ensure the best fit with no rattle.use the spacers when securing
the rear part of the front shield.)
Once the
front four rivets are installed you can then use the predrilled holes in the
plate as a guide to drill your holes on the vehicle.
Drill the remaining
3/16” holes. Using the spacers and longer rivets, install and check for
clearance around the exhaust.
STEP 5: (NOTE:
The Installation of the rear shield rivets are standard length.)

in the rear shield using the holes as guides. Install the remaining rivets and
