The Rear Bumper

Retrieve the following parts we received back with Pack 18:

• Rear Diffuser Middle Vent
• Left Rear Exhaust Trim
• Right Rear Exhaust Trim

Step 01

Fit the Rear Diffuser Middle Vent to this lower opening of the Rear Bumper, as shown:

Make sure these two metal ‘arms’ of the Rear Bumper are inside the lower edge of the Rear Diffuser Middle Vent, as shown. You may have to gently bend the Rear Diffuser Middle Vent to get this to fit correctly, so just be careful:

Secure the top edge of the Rear Diffuser Middle Vent to the Rear Bumper with three (3) HM screws.

This is your friendly reminder to try using 3-in-One Oil on all screws going into metal:

Secure the lower edge of the Rear Diffuser Middle Vent to the Rear Bumper with two (2) MP screws.

NOTE: While the instruction text is correct regarding the use of MP screws, the image in the magazine incorrectly shows using HM screws here:

Step 02

Fit the Left Rear Exhaust Trim to this lower-left opening of the Rear Bumper, as shown:

Secure the Left Rear Exhaust Trim to the Rear Bumper with two (2) HM screws:

Step 03

Fit the Right Rear Exhaust Trim to this lower-right opening of the Rear Bumper, as shown:

Secure the Right Rear Exhaust Trim to the Rear Bumper with two (2) HM screws:

Thoughts

This Rear Bumper is beautiful! I especially like the pre-painted parts and the pre-installed side grilles.
