01 Step 1: Clean Surface

Be sure to prepare the surface that the rear diffuser trim will make contact with prior to install. Be sure to use a cleaning solution that does not leave any residue. If the contact areas are unclear, you can test fit the rear diffuser trim to confirm which areas need to be cleaned.

02 Step 2: Test Fit

Place the rear diffuser trim over the factory rear fascia to check for proper fitment. The primary goal here is to cover the factory plastic trim without impacting visibility of rear light and reflector indicators.

Before you install the rear diffuser trim, be sure to pull the backing tape at each edge so that it can be pulled away once the lip spoiler is in the correct location.

03 Step 3: Prep Surface

Once you have determined where to place the rear diffuser trim, apply the supplied adhesive promoter to the areas where the rear diffuser adhesive will make contact with the fascia.

04 Step 4: Installation

Install the rear diffuser trim onto the rear fascia. Adjust the rear diffuser trim accordingly until desired placement is achieved.

Once desired placement is achieved, apply pressure towards the rear diffuser trim while removing the lead ends to ensure the desired placement is locked in place.

Congratulations! You have completed your rear diffuser trim!

The cure time for the adhesive is a few hours, so be sure not to expose the car to moisture for at least 24 hours after installation. Otherwise, you are all set to go!

For my 2018 Model 3P I got the mild springs. Amazing! The ride feel is even better than I was hoping for. The car is my daily driver and the harshness of the stock springs with the 20" rims made me consider switching to 19". Instead I figured I try UP's dual rate springs first since it seemed to...
