3. Position the right front spoiler trim (2) and align it with the edges (arrows).

   There must not be any gap between the right front spoiler trim (2) and the front apron. The bonding area must make full contact.

   Rolling activates the adhesive in the tape, allowing the full adhesive power to take effect.
