Front Bumper Corner Step Plate Covers for Ineos Grenadier - Black Anodized Aluminum

Front Bumper Corner Step Plate Covers for Ineos Grenadier - Black Anodized AluminumThis pair of stamped aluminum front bumper corner pedal plate covers provides direct protection for the factory steel front bumper corner treads on the Ineos Grenadier Station Wagon and Quartermaster models. The top sections of the factory bumper corners serve as step platforms when operators access the roof line, clear the windshield, or adjust forward lighting gear. This product shields the factory paint coating from structural abrasion caused by mud, grit, and heavy footwear, preventing raw metal exposure that triggers steel degradation. To withstand heavy vertical stepping forces and harsh environmental exposure without displacement or separation, these plates rely on a structural mechanical connection rather than adhesive backing.SKU: SAP-INGR-059 Material: Stamped Aluminum Alloy Thickness: 2mm Finish: Black Anodized Textured Coating Quantity: 2 Pieces per Set (Left and Right) Installation Position: Front Bumper Corner Step Treads Fastening Hardware: 8 High-Strength Rivets (4 per Side) Fixation Method: Drilled Mechanical Rivet Connection Compatibility: 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026 Ineos Grenadier Station Wagon and Quartermaster models with factory steel front bumpersMounting requires mechanical drilling into the factory steel bumper corner panels to install the rivets. This structural fixation delivers stabilization under shifting vertical weight loads and completely eliminates the risk of plate separation caused by wind resistance, mud saturation, or thermal expansion during highway transit and low temperature trail use. Operators mark the 4 pre-drilled holes on each plate onto the factory bumper surface, drill the pilot holes using a standard 3.5mm drill bit, align the aluminum shield panel, and secure it using a heavy-duty rivet tool. The mechanical connection creates a solid bond that prevents metal-on-metal vibration.Installation involves permanent modification to the factory bumper surface. Users are responsible for verifying fitment and confirming installation accuracy before proceeding.Package includes: Left side aluminum bumper corner plate x1, right side aluminum bumper corner plate x1, mounting rivet set x8.FAQQ: Do these bumper corner plates fit the Ineos Grenadier Quartermaster model? A: This accessory is compatible with the Ineos Grenadier Quartermaster and Station Wagon variants equipped with the factory steel front bumper. The stamped geometry matches the corner profile of these specific models exactly.Q: Why does this product use rivet fastening instead of double-sided adhesive tape? A: Rivet fixation creates a structural mechanical connection that cannot peel or shift when subjected to full adult weight or shear force during climbing. This method maintains structural stability in heavy mud, water crossings, and extreme temperature variations where chemical adhesives degrade over time.Q: What size hole must be drilled into the factory bumper for installation? A: The pre-drilled holes on each plate are sized at 3.5mm to match the supplied high-strength rivets. Use a 3.5mm drill bit to execute the pilot holes on the factory bumper surface. Verify alignment of each plate before drilling to ensure correct positioning.
