Hey, I'm new to the forum but I have been reading a lot of posts. I want to install a Chrome Grille on my Rogue. It looks pretty simple but anyone have any tips to avoid problems ? Thanks

Hello and welcome to the forums nevermind!

From what I understand the chrome grille installation is pretty straightforward. Just be sure the area is washed, cleaned with alcohol to remove any wax, then just follow the instructions.

Good luck!

Hi Nevermind! The best tip I can provide? Prep ... Prep... Prep! The 3M double sided tape is super strong... but if you don't get all the wax off or fail to properly prepare the surface you could potentially loose the grille

Your best bet... THROUGHLY read these installation instructions. Its all you really need to know.

Dry test it before installing: Do all the cleaning mentioned before and before removing the plastic covering the 3M strips, install them on the grille to see if it is better to start from one side or the other.

The chrome grille cannot be the exact same size as the grille (few mm smaller or bigger), so by dry testing it, you will see what is yours and adjust when you will install it.

Look twice, install once! (because you won't get another chance with these sticky strips, anyway).
