Default Grill Delete Came QUESTION?

So I got it in. There is a 1/8 inch gap between the bumper! Anyone else have the problem?

What did you do?
Should I just super glue it right there?

I have used double sided tape before the only draw back is when you wash your car water hides up in there forever!!! but other than that it works fine......I wouldnt use super glue it would pull the paint off of your bumper.

Its normal, let the sun hit it for a couple of days and it will flatten out. Your instructions should of told you that. Same with a wound up chin spoiler, just let sun do its job....

If the chin spoiler is folded up in a box, let the sun cure it for a while before you attempt to install. This way it will naturally unfold itself and get to its normal resting position.

Well, technically isn't the correct way to take care of that problem to screw the bottom of the delete to the bumper?



Yeah, I know, I didn't do it either.

Mine never came with instructions that I got from CJ Pony parts, they must have forgotten them. LOL!
I just used the install info available here.
