Question How to install CME valance?

Mine didnt come with instructions just the double sided adhesive and 3 plastic clips. I was looking at the valance and 1 of the holes for the clip is right in the center. And then I look at the bumper theres no hole? Any advice on putting this on?

thanks

if ur talking about the quad tip valance then it should have come with a bag of clips. well at least mine did all u gotta do is drill the holes to a little smaller than the clips and push them through into the bumber , then again thats what i did. and it seems to be holding fine oh and there were already like 8 pilot holes drilled in mine. hope that helps

oh ya and put the 3m tape on first and then drill through it. the tape is just added strength so it doesnt droop.

I dont have the quad. So I guess I just drill a small hole for that one in the center.
thanks

I just put mine on on Sunday. I drilled a hole for the center and used a push clip. I used the kind like are holding the bumper to the absorber on the bottom. The ones that came with the kit are too stiff.

I still don't know why mine came with two thicknesses of tape??

I also put one behind each wheel, driling through both pieces. It seemd to not stay in place otherwise.

I am still not crazy about how it fits. I wish there was a more solid way to fasten it. It does look way better than the two piece that came with my quad kit.
