1. BEFORE YOU BEGIN YOU MUST FIRST PREP THE DOOR PANEL IN ORDER TO

ALLOW ADHESION!!! You can do this by scrubbing the entire area first with
household isopropyl alcohol. Then closely follow the procedures outlined in the
following steps!!!!

2. If your door panels have been treated with armor-all or silicone coatings,

installation will NOT work unless these treatments have been REMOVED with
special chemicals! Household Isopropyl alcohol alone WILL NOT remove it.
NOTE: Some doors have been treated at the dealerships and the factory before
you purchased the car. So to be extra safe we suggest that you please refer to
the SPECIAL PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS enclosed. We can not be responsible
for panels’ not sticking due to improper door preparation!

3. NOTE: YOU HAVE BEEN PROVIDED WITH 1 (or 2) SMALL ABRASIVE PADS AND 2

(or 4) TEST STRIPS ONE FOR EACH DOOR.

4. Apply a strip of masking tape along the door panel above the contour to protect

it. Lightly scuff the door panel along the entire perimeter to be mounted and
wipe off any and all shavings. This step will produce a raw surface. Once this is
done swipe the entire perimeter with the adhesive promoter (provided). Allow a
few seconds to dry. Use one of the test strips provided to test tackiness of the
door panel area to be mounted. If all the procedures from the SPECIAL
PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS have been preformed properly your test strip will
stick. If it does not stick perform the entire preparation again until it does.
DON’T ATTEMPT TO INSTALL YOUR DOOR GUARDS UNTIL YOUR TEST STRIPS
ADHERE PROPERLY.

Installation errors are NOT manufacturing defects and parts CANNOT be returned due
to improper installation.


5. Before you remove the red liner for permanent attachment place the door guard

into position and check the fit. Please refer to the pictures at the end of these
instructions.
Make note of its position.

6. Remove the red liner (be sure not to touch the adhesive) and carefully

reposition the door guard, press firmly on the panel to set.

7. Once your panel has been properly installed remove the protective liner. You

have been provided with a length of chrome trim. This trim is designed to cap
the front two door guards for a nice finished look. Using the adhesive promoter
(provided) swipe the very top edge of the door pocket all the way across and
allow to dry for a few seconds. Take one length of molding and begin at one side
of the door pocket by pulling the red release liner from the edge of the trim
