F. PAINTING THE KIT

1. Remove the mesh vent from the hood.

Block and prime the spot-weld area on top of the front cap immediately forward of the

seam between the cap and the fender.

2. Use FUSOR #123 catalyzed seam sealer on the seam. Use tape to mask either side of

the seam and use a finger to apply a smooth bead in the seam. Sand smooth. DO NOT

FILL the seam flush. If you do this properly it will look like an O.E. seam. (FUSOR #123

is available from Lord, Inc 1-800-234-FUSOR or www.fusor.com)

Be sure the hood hinges are firmly bolted on to the hood with the O.E. hardware before

the hood is painted.

Carefully mask the studs that hold the mesh vent in. It is very important not to get paint

on these studs.

3. AEV Highline kit is E-Coated to O.E. standards, prep, scuff and wash per refinishing

standards. We recommend using a white sealer prior to paint for a better color match.

4. We recommend blending the paint onto the doors cowl side and body side for all colors

except black. Spray the modified area around the rear wheelhouse at this time to cover

any bare metal or drilled whole edges.

5. Undercoat the rear wheelhouses thoroughly.

6. Spray the mesh vent in the hood with Black paint. The part comes E-coated but it MUST

be painted or the E coating will fail under solar radiation.

7. When installing the mesh vent, use thread lock and gently tighten by hand only. If these

nuts are over tightened it will show through the Class A surface.
