Toyota 4Runner 2014-2022 (garnish and grille bars)

Extra tools: Isopropyl alcohol, clean rags

Install notes:

• Garnish: clean the surface and apply adhesion promoter where the tape will touch the grille bar (do the grille bars at the same time if you are installing those too). Remove the backing and slip the garnish over the top of the factory grille bar.
• Tuck the top of the garnish under the bottom edge of the upper grille, and tuck the lower edge in above the sensor on the underside of the grille. Press firmly.
• Grille bars: apply each overlay directly over its factory grille bar, making sure each piece goes on its own side, then press firmly.

Toyota Tundra 2014-2021 (grille surround and hood bulge)

Extra tools: Isopropyl alcohol, masking tape (non-marking)

Install notes:

• Wipe the adhesion promoter on the grille surround and hood bulge, especially around the perimeter.
• Peel and tape: on all perimeter tape (top and bottom strips and the edge of the intake cutout), peel back the first 1 to 1.5 inches and tape it to the front with masking tape. Doing this at both ends of each strip gives you a backup. Fully remove the backing on the inner strip on the lower part, which will not be reachable afterwards.
• Grille surround: tuck the edges so they nest inside the panel gaps of the front fascia, without letting the tape touch down until you are happy with the position. Then tuck the inside ring in: its top portion fits snugly between the outside of the grille and the inside of the surround, and that edge gradually gets shorter until it sits flush against the border of the inner grille near the bottom of the vertical edge.
• Hood bulge: carefully slip the overlay over the bulge with no exposed tape touching. Align it at the critical areas first, then work one area at a time: confirm its position, pull that area's backing tab and press firmly straight away.
• When both parts are on, go over every taped area again with firm pressure.

Watch for:

• Skipping the careful peel-and-tape order can leave strips of chrome showing. Take your time.

Ford F-150 2018-2020 (center bar overlay)

Extra tools: Isopropyl alcohol, clean cloth

Install notes:

• Dry fit with the backing on. An arrow on the back shows which way is up. Press firmly so the cover slides fully over the chrome center grille and its edges cover any exposed grille edge.
• Peel back the first inch of backing on all perimeter tape and tape it to the front. Remove the backing completely on the inner tape. On a Lariat, remove the foam strips around the air intakes, and leave all other foam in place.
• Line the top edge up with the top edge of the grille so all chrome is covered. Keep pressure on the cover so it does not shift, then pull the backing on the top perimeter while pressing the newly exposed tape down. Two people make this easier. Do the remaining perimeter sections the same way.
• On a Lariat, flex the top edge of the overlay to fit the slightly recessed top edge of the grille. The tape will hold it in place.

Ford F-150 2021-2023 (upper, lower and center)

Extra tools: Plastic pry / trim tool

Install notes:

• Wipe the adhesion promoter on every area the tape will touch and let it dry first.
• Start with the upper or lower section. They look alike but differ slightly: the upper section is wider through the middle than the lower.
• Push the overlay slowly toward the grille and check the position before the tape makes contact. Press firmly once you are happy, then repeat on the other section.
• Center section (if you have one): note which side is up (a sticker marked TOP is on the inside). Peel the protective film back from its edges so it does not get trapped between the upper and lower sections.
• Press all taped areas again and remove any remaining film.

Ford F-250 / F-350 2023-2025 (upper and lower)

Install notes:

• During the dry fit, check the color match if your part is custom painted, and look for any sliver of chrome that might still show. Use the included blackout tape in those spots.
• Wipe on the adhesion promoter and let it dry. Start with either section. The upper one is marked TOP with a sticker on the inside.
• Push the overlay slowly back toward the grille, check the position, then press firmly. Repeat for the other section, press again and remove any remaining film.

Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2007-2013

Extra tools: Isopropyl alcohol, clean cloth

Install notes:

• Apply the adhesion promoter to all of the tape areas in one go, so the tip does not dry out (press the stick where indicated to start it). It should be dry to the touch before you continue.
• Remove the backing, place the cover over the grille and center its logo opening around the bezel of the Chevy logo. Press firmly on all taped areas, then remove any protective film.

Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2019-2021 (LT: center and side covers)

Extra tools: Isopropyl alcohol, clean rags

Install notes:

• Wipe the adhesion promoter on the grille where tape will touch.
• Center cover first: remove all the backing, position it and press firmly. The top grille bar is slightly skinnier than the bottom bar, which tells you which way is up.
• Side covers: remove all backing except the perimeter tape. Peel back a small section of the perimeter tape and tape it to the front. Each side cover overlaps the center cover by at least 1/4 inch. Make sure the style lines line up and no chrome shows, then press the inner areas. Pull the perimeter tabs and press those too.
• Wait 48 hours before highway driving or an automatic car wash, and press the taped areas again after 24 hours.

Watch for:

• With an aftermarket grille, the factory grille bar may have shifted so the gap to the headlight housing is smaller. The side covers will then look held off. If you cannot shift the bar to restore the gap, the side covers would need to be trimmed around the housing.

Toyota Tacoma 2024-2026

Extra tools: Isopropyl alcohol, plastic pry tool, hobby knife, masking tape

Install notes:

• Dry fit first and note the centered position. Clean the grille with isopropyl alcohol and a clean cloth, then apply the adhesion promoter where tape will touch.
• The long tape strip on the top outside edge: use the hobby knife to slit that tape strip (not the part) down the middle. Pull each half back about 1 inch, wrap it to the front and secure it with masking tape.
• On all the other outside strips, wrap the edges about 1 inch around to the front and secure with masking tape. Completely remove all inner strips of tape.
• Align the overlay with the grille. Press from one side to the other so the inner tape holds, then remove the exposed tape starting with the center strip, pulling the masking tape and pressing as you go. Repeat for the remaining pieces. Remove any protective film.
