Problem Installing TRD rear skirt.. HELP - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

at the step 2 of installing the rear skirt, they mention install arrow template on bumper? what does that mean.. isn't arrow template just a sticker? where do I put it? inside the bumper or outside the bumper? the sticker should be put in vertical position with arrow pointing down?
then at step 3
"cut off small lip under bottom of bumper" what do they mean by that?
thanks!!

Hey man, Sound like you got your kit, how is the front pieces? Did you put them on yet? Sorry can't help you in this part, too busy to get my painted, will have to do it soon. Let me know how it goes, some pictures would be cool too. Good luck :smile:

Yeah, I just got mine last Wednesday, luckily Billy sent the kit as a warranty replacement, I only had to pay 40 Cdn dollars for brokerage fee for UPS and that;s it.. no custom.. that saves me a lot of money..
no, I haven't had the chance to put them on, probably next wednesday or Thursday when the temperature hits 25C, it was raining most of the time this past week in Toronto.. Hope everytings go well with your kit!!

mm. one more question.. the installation guide suggest that clean the surface with lacquer thinner.. wouldn't it damage the paint of the car?? is it necessary?

Does anyone know what is the reason for putting the black clip thing between the piece and the bumper?

mm.. the rear piece doesn't fit onto my 2001 Camry bumper.. isn't it supposed to fit except the front piece? does anyone have the TRD rear piece fit onto their 2000-2001 Camry and have a photo of it, so I can see where I put it wrong...

Hey T2000, I brought my car to a bodyshop, and they will only charge me $60 dollars to mold on the front and rear skirt for me.
What a waste of time trying to figure out how to put them on myself. Anyway, I will get it done next Thursday, hopefully I will post some photos after that. Hope this info helps you too.

Thanks man, I was planning to get the body shop who'll paint my car to put on the kit for me. I would love to do it myself but like you said, it would be a waste of time if it doesn't work out.
Good luck and post some pictures when you can.
