make sure it fits prior to spraying anything. then if possible two people to put it in place at one time.. its easier that way.. also go buy some bigger screws for the middle part. I got three and just drilled them into the bumper and splitter.. and I used the provided ones for the sides.. its held up pretty good... Also, you can use clear or black silicon to go over the top.. because you are using tape, water will be able to sit there. I used black silicone for plastic parts.

street scene is does not have a nice finish as Stillen does. most of them come with sanding marks from the vendor. so you have to spray them with some kinda paint or so.. Bed liner is really good or flexible bumper coating from duplicolor..

Well the install is easy man. you could do it yourself.. did you get the adhesion promoter from 3M?? I think street scene sent you some. use that or get some from 3M... it makes it stick harder to the bumper.. if you find urself a friend, its an easy DIY.. i did it on my own and it was still easy.. Im not expert in doing stuff but I have done everything to my car so far..

I installed mine myself as well. I put new tape & 15 small bolts to hold it on. Probably overkill, but I wasn't leaving anything to chance...
As for paint I used Plastidip for mine. It has been a couple months of daily driving & not one rock chip in it yet. Super easy to do & looks good!

I installed mine and haven't had one problem. Make sure and use the primer for the 3M tape. The 3 attachment places in the middle. I drilled and and used a 1/4 bolt with big washers to hold it on. That way it will stay on at high speeds.
