The Precision Bumper Guard Kit (4-piece, BGK 1701 68) provides OEM-style protection and cosmetic restoration for 1968 model year bumpers. Each guard is engineered to absorb minor impacts, prevent chrome damage and body dents, and restore the vintage appearance of the bumper. Constructed from corrosion-resistant materials with durable cushions and mounting hardware, this kit is ideal for restoration projects and like-for-like replacements. Easy to install with basic tools, the set offers reliable, long-lasting protection and maintains the classic look of the vehicle.

Installation / Application:
- Difficulty: 2/5
- Estimated time: 30-60 minutes
Instructions:
- Park vehicle on a level surface, engage parking brake, and disconnect battery if working near electrical components.
- If necessary for access, raise and support the vehicle with jack stands and remove the bumper per vehicle-specific service manual.
- Remove existing bumper guards or trim pieces and retain any reusable hardware. Clean mounting surfaces of dirt, rust, and old adhesive.
- Test-fit the new guards on the bumper to verify alignment and fitment. Mark mounting hole locations if drilling or aligning is required.
- Attach each guard using the supplied hardware. Hand-start all fasteners to ensure proper alignment before tightening.
- Tighten fasteners to the vehicle manufacturer's recommended torque specification or snugly if no spec is available. Avoid over-tightening to prevent deformation.
- Reinstall the bumper if it was removed and verify gaps and alignment. Check that rubber cushions contact the bumper correctly and that guards sit flush.
- Lower the vehicle (if raised), perform a final inspection, and test for secure fitment. Re-torque fasteners after a short initial use period if desired.
