If the bottom section is cut out to make room for your fog lights, use only the top 2 holes on the sides of the pad to hook it to the fender. This will provide enough horizontal support. Do not use the bottom hole, as it will damage the pad.

Tips on Bungee Cord Attachment to Wheel well
If your Bumperduo is loose, here are some useful tips on tightening and securing Bumperduo to the wheel well.
Looping
-
If space between fender and tire is slim turn wheel in.
-
If pad is loose unhook bottom fastener and insert through middle hole.
-
Insert again through bottom hole. If pad is still loose, continue to step 4.
-
Loop it through the bottom hole and hook it back behind fender. This will shorten the fastener even more and tighten the pad.
Crisscrossing
After looping bungee cords through Bumperduo holes, crisscross cords and attach hooks inside wheel well.
Bungee Cord Resizing
Bungee cords come in three different sizes:
- 18 inches
- 12 inches
- 8 inches
If you find that the Bumperduo is not tight enough around your bumper, try using shorter bungee cords.
For the front only: you may use the top 2 Bumperduo holes for optimal fit.
