DODGE VIPER SRT10 REAR VALANCE TRIM KIT
PART # ACC-972019

 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS


PARTS INCLUDED:

8 x  Stainless Fin Diffusers Covers

4 x  Strips of Chrome Molding

3 x  Promoter Packets
2 x  Tape Test Kits


NOTE:  Your new covers come to you with a protective liner. Do not remove liner until step 3.

 

  1. Prepare each of the four fins by first washing with soap and water to remove any dirt, dust. Then scrub with household rubbing alcohol to remove any and all waxes and oils. Allow to dry.
     
  2. You will want to test the adhesion of the surface that you will be mounting your trim covers to.  Take a test tape or a piece of masking tape and stick it to the area on your car to see if the tape sticks.  Try each fin and each side of your car.  If the tape sticks everywhere readily then proceed to step 3.  If not continue to clean the surfaces until the test tapes stick in all areas where you will be mounting your trim pieces. 
     
  3. You have been provided with four (2-pc) sets of fin covers.  Each cover has been layered with a 3M attachment tape. Test fit each plate before you remove the red liner by simply placing each one into position first to make a mental note of where each cover fits. Be sure that the covers line up flush with the very bottom and back edge of the fin (the largest side closest to the bumper).  
     
  4. Then swipe over the entire area with the adhesive promoter packs (provided).  Each packet does four (4) fins.  
     
  5. Once you are satisfied with the position of your covers remove the red liner from the attachment tape of the first stainless steel fin cover. Carefully position the piece so that the bottom is even and flush with the black fin attached to the car. Press firmly over the entire surface to enable the tape to set. Repeat this process for the opposite side of the fin.
    NOTE:  It is critical that the bottoms of the fins line up perfectly so that when you put the edge molding on it will set level.
     
  6. You have been provided with four chrome molding strips. This molding is used to close the gap between the two covers of each fin. It simply acts as an edge cap. Simply place the strip into position pulling the red release liner as you firmly set the flex trim along the fin edge and between the two edges of stainless. Work your way from one end to the other until the gap between the two pieces is covered. Repeat this process for the remaining fins. You may have to stretch the flex trim slightly if it comes up a little short or trim it with scissors if it comes up slightly too long.

 

Note: Care must be taken when cleaning your stainless. It is a good idea to lightly dust your stainless with a clean soft cloth first in order to prevent any particles from scratching them. Then wipe (using a new clean soft cloth) with a good quality streak free glass cleaner. It is also a good idea to add a light coat of wax such as a quick spray wax.
