Step 8: THIS STEP IS MODEL SPECIFIC!
GT & V6 MODELS ONLY!
On GT & V6 models, you will need to trim the splash pan portion of the Chin Spoiler across the 4 connecting tabs as shown in fi g. I, in order to fi t the under side of the GT & V6. Reinstall the splash pan. Insert the front of the pan below the bumper but inside the new chin spoiler. Now reinstall the rear screws of the splash pan.

Install the 4 Self Tapping Screws through the chin spoiler and into the splash pan as shown in fi g. J.

After the part has been painted, install the 2 sided tape as shown in fi g. K. Stop the tape 1 inch short from the corner as shown in fi g. L. When installing the chin spoiler to the bumper peel back and fold about 2 inches of each piece of the red tape backing then install to the car. Once the chin spoiler is postioned properly, peel the tape backing away and apply pressure to the part to adhere it to the car.
URETHANE PAINTING INSTRUCTIONS
VERY IMPORTANT: The following painting procedures MUST be followed EXACTLY for PROPER ADHESION and to prevent fish eyes.
1. To remove any mold release contaminants, clean the back of the part fi rst. Using 2 new clean rags, saturate the fi rst rag with plastic prep cleaner* and begin cleaning. Then use the second rag to remove the prep cleaner. Continuously fold both rags to their clean sides during the process. Use 3 sets of new rags throughout the process. This prevents mold release contaminants from transferring to the painted surface.
2. Repeat step one on the front of the part.
3. Rinse the part with water. Apply a generous amount of Ajax® or sand fi x* to a red scuff pad* (3M Scotch Brite Brand) and scrub the surface to be painted THOROUGHLY (especially where the 2-sided tape is installed, on the back side of the part, and all the hard to reach areas). Then rinse with water and dry. The scrubbed surface should be dull. If any shiny spots show, repeat the process on those areas.
4. Using another set of clean new rags, again clean the surface to be painted with plastic prep cleaner.
5. Spray the surface to be painted with adhesion promoter* including the areas where the 2-sided tape is installed (follow the instructions on the can for application and drying time).
6. Apply 3 to 4 coats of urethane primer* with fl ex additive* (follow the instructions on the can for application and drying time).
7. Wet sand primer with 600 grit sandpaper. Be careful not to sand through the primer. If you do, you MUST clean those areas with plastic prep cleaner, apply adhesion promoter and prime. Once the primer has dried, wet sand the areas that were touched up. Your surface is now ready for paint.
