Saw off the ends once you have fixed it to the bumper. Therefore you can get the cut inline with your car etc.
Also use a drill to screw it on., i have seen people attempt other ways and it just takes forever and isnt neat and a strong fixing.

yeh but using a drill and getting it wrong could easily crack the bumper, atleast with a screw you can take it slow and see how it goes! Doesnt take long with self tappers!
