I used the tape on mine.

The shield doesn't hit the top side of the hood, but it does rest on the top of the headlight assembly and the grill slightly that's where I made sure it was applied.

I didn't put any on the headlights. I did put the tape on the top edge of the grill. The parts to watch for are on the corners where the guard contacts the grill and the outer corners that contact the headlight housing. I was going to dremel down the corners of the guard for the headlight spots but haven't gotten around to it.
