Bushwacker only approves installing the ﬂ ares according to these

written instructions with the hardware provided. WARNING: Failure to

install according to these instructions will invalidate the warranty. This

includes, but is not limited to using alternative installation methods,

hardware, or materials. DO NOT USE: Loctite, SuperGlue, or similar

products on the hardware or the ﬂ ares.

Fit: Verify the ﬁ t of the ﬂ ares to vehicle. (Some ﬁ ling, sanding, or

cutting may be necessary to ensure proper ﬁ t).

Painting: (Optional) if paint is desired it must be done prior to installing

ﬂ ares on vehicle. Clean outer surface with a good grade degreaser.

DO NOT USE LACQUER THINNER OR ENAMEL REDUCER AS A

DEGREASER. Wipe outer surface thoroughly with a tack rag prior to

paint. Application of plastic adhesion promoter for ABS plastic as per

your paint system manufacturer’s recommendations is required. Paint

ﬂ ares using a high quality enamel, or polyurethane automotive paint. If

painting edge trim (not recommended), use a ﬂ ex additive.

Performance: Using larger Tires may increase the area required to

turn the vehicle. Some Tire/Rim combinations may require lowering

bump stops and or installing steering stops to prevent tire from

contacting ﬂ are.

Exhaust System: Modiﬁ cations may be necessary to maintain a

minimum 4” clearance between ﬂ ares and exhaust pipes. (Exhaust

gases should not vent directly onto ﬂ ares)

Metal Protection: All exposed fasteners and bare metal should be

treated with rust resistant paint BEFORE installing ﬂ ares. Spray inner

fender wells with undercoating AFTER ﬂ are attachments have been

completed.

Decals: Flares may interfere with existing decals on vehicle. If you

wish, remove decals prior to installation of ﬂ ares.

Care & Cleaning: Bushwacker fender ﬂ ares are built to last; any

detergent you use to wash your vehicle is sufﬁ cient to clean the ﬂ are.

Do not use any harsh abrasive detergents.
