Preparing Vertical Side Panels for the Panzer Plate
1. First, on level ground, raise the front of the car evenly. To do this, you may choose to drive the car onto ramps, jack the car up and secure with two jack stands or use a car lift. If using jack stands or ramps be sure to chock the rear wheels and place the car in gear and firmly apply the handbrake. You should also wear safety goggles during this entire procedure.
2. Once the car is safely raised, remove the Original Equipment Audi plastic belly pan if your car still has one. Next, on the driver side, remove the rear T25 Torx screw from the tail end of the plastic vertical engine bay side panel. In order for the Panzer skid plate to fit, the mounting spot on the subframe where the side panel attaches must not have a Torx screw or side panel attached to it. Retain the T25 Torx screws for the final skid plate install.

Procedures:
1. Make sure you park the vehicle on a level concrete or asphalt surface. Many times a vehicle is un level (side-to-side) from the factory, but usually not noticed until a lift kit has been installed which makes the difference more visible. Using a measuring tape, measure the front and rear (both sides) from the ground up to the center of the fender opening above the axle. Record below for future reference.
