FBM550C Installation Instructions | NoviStretch

NoviStretch™ Front Bumper Mask


Step #1

Clean the bumper and surfaces under the car and the fender wells thoroughly (tar and grease remover is recommended).

Step #2

Turn the front wheels to gain easier access to the fender liner mounting screws that you will be replacing.

Step #3

Remove the screws that attach the fender liner to the front bumper and replace as you go with the snap-head screw studs. Repeat this step on the other side of the car.

Step #4

Begin the mask installation by attaching the end of the mask to the inside of the fender. Align the snaps on the mask with the snaps on the car and secure. Note the position of the Velcro strip at each end of the mask. Mark this position on the car and install a mating piece of Velcro, taking care to completely clean the mounting surface. Caution: allow 24-hr cure time before trying to remove the mask after it has been attached to the Velcro.

Step #5

Stretch the mask across the front of the bumper and attach to the other side of the car, repeating the addition of the Velcro strip. Note: the tension in the mask is normal and important to the overall performance of the product.

Step #6

Pull the bottom of the mask down under the car and note the position of the Velcro strip on the bottom/center of the mask. Mark this position on the car and install a mating piece of Velcro, taking care to completely clean the mounting surface. Caution: allow 24 hr. cure time before trying to remove the mask after it has been attached.

Step #7

Locate and slightly loosen the screw holding the corner of the air dam on each side of the car allowing the bottom edge of the mask to go between the bumper and the air dam. Note: Do not install mask over the air-dam.

Step #8

Open the hood on the car and remove only the male portion of the pushpin that aligns with the corner snap on the mask. Install a snap head screw stud in the female part of this pushpin (Take care not to over tighten this screw). Pull the top of the mask up and secure the corner snap. Pass the top of the mask under the hood release handle and secure the other corner snap.

The NoviStretch™ FBM550C mask is easily secured using snap fasteners integrated into the design. This requires snap-head screws, supplied in the hardware kit, be installed on the car as described below. The initial installation should require approximately 15 minutes to complete. After setup the mask can be easily installed and removed in just under one minute.

The FBM550C is designed for installation on all 2010 and later 5th Generation Camaros.
