Default Installing the FTRA

I just got it in the mail today...Is this hard to install?? I was reading the directions and it seems quite difficult. For the people that have this mod can you tell me how it was when you installed it? Was it hard?

Does it scrape?? Can you please post pics of your FTRA top and bottom? It would be a big help. Thanks!

hey man, good choice on the FTRA
i have one on my '02 SS
and it wasnt bad to install but read the directions
and be careful not to bend too many of the AC condensor fins
(they bend real easy)

i took my time when i did it just to make sure i didnt overdo anything
oh and dont cut too much plastic

and NO it will not scrape, the only way possible for it to scrape would be for you to be missin part of your front bumper which would allow it to hang low enuf to scrape.

only thing i dont like about it is the fact that it can suck up water if it rains and the block off plate works but its a hassle to install it cuz you never knows when its goin to rain

other than that, ENJOY!!!
