Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This product is specifically designed for the Audi A4 B9 Sedan model. Ensure your vehicle matches this description before installation.
Setup Instructions:
- Clean the Surface: Thoroughly clean the area on the tailgate where the strip will be applied. Ensure it is free from dust, grease, and moisture. A clean surface is crucial for proper adhesion.
- Position the Strip: Carefully align the chrome strip with the edges of your tailgate. Use the vehicle's existing contours as a guide.
- Apply Adhesive: Peel off the protective backing from the double-sided adhesive tape on the strip. It is recommended to apply it slowly and steadily to avoid trapping air bubbles.
- Press Firmly: Once aligned, press down firmly along the entire length of the strip to ensure a secure bond. Apply even pressure for at least 30 seconds.
- Final Check: Inspect the strip for any lifted edges or air bubbles. If minor bubbles are present and cannot be smoothed out, consider professional installation.
Care Instructions:
- Clean the trim with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the chrome finish.
- For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly with clean water.
- Do not use high-pressure washers directly on the trim, as this can compromise the adhesive bond.
