STEP 02

Join and position the shroud

Assemble the two shroud pieces with the supplied M5 hardware, placing small washers beneath both bolt heads and nuts. Set the assembly on the car, align all three slots and press each fitting fully into its slot, starting at the left. Install the M6 screws with their larger washers.

Finish with a slow clearance check

Adjust the assembly as necessary and torque the three M6 mounting screws to 8 ft-lb. Slowly lower the hood to check clearance. Do not slam it during the first fit check; resolve any interference before closing normally.
