Protection bar fitting

[JDiehl]

Before I drill this anyone have experience fitting the VPLAP0022 protection bar?

There are two patterns. I’m guessing one for LR3 and other for LR4 as they are a little different and call for different bit sizes when drilling.

I know the bar is basically just for looks. Had it painted matched to the truck in gloss black.

Ended up running the bolts backwards through the brackets and dabbed some white paint on the ends of the bolts. This allowed me to set the plastic bumper surround on and it marked my drill holes on the back side. The template was not ideal for me.

I’ll throw a pic up when the job is finished.
