You need to have a custom Recovery on your phone if you want to install Custom ROMs. TWRP is such a popular Custom Recovery available for many devices including Nexus 4.

DISCLAIMER:
Installing custom recovery on your device may VOID your warranty and may delete all your data. Before proceeding further you may consider backup of your all data. Understand the fact that you are the only person responsible for everything that you do with you device.

If you blame me for a disaster that happened to your device then I will simply laugh at you.

Required files for TWRP flashing on Nexus 4 (Codename: Mako):

– Driver for Your Nexus device
– 15 Seconds ADB Installer for Windows
– Minimal ADB and Fastboot for Windows
– ADB & Fastboot installation guide on MAC/Linux
– Recovery image for your corresponding device from the next link: TWPR custom recovery for Nexus 4 Mako

You may follow the below link to backup all the data on your android device:
Step by step guide to take full backup of your phone data

STEP by STEP TWRP flashing guide for Google Nexus 4:

The complete process will be split into three things as following:
– Unlocking the Bootloader
– Installing a custom recovery

Unlocking the Bootloader:

• Turn the phone off.
• Then boot it into the bootloader/fastboot mode by holding volume up + volume down + power.
• Open a command console and go to the directory where you have extracted adb and fastboot
  Type the following command in the console:

      $ fastboot devices

NOTE:
This command will list the connected devices.
If your phones serial number shows up you are good to go and may continue.
If the phone is NOT listed this indicates that your drivers are not installed correctly.
In order for you to continue you must configure your drivers properly so that your phone is listed under fastboot devices.

• If the phone has been recognized by the command above, proceed to unlocking the bootloader with the following command::

      $ fastboot oem unlock

NOTE:
Remember that this step will wipe EVERYTHING off the phone.
If you have not taken a backup of your phone data then do it here:
Step by step guide to take full backup of your phone data

Flashing a Custom Recovery:

• Find out the appropriate custom recovery for your device.
• Copy the custom recovery into the directory where you have kept the adb and fastboot files.
• Now type the following command to install the custom recovery image onto your Nexus device:

      $ fastboot flash recovery <recovery_image_file.name>

• Place the recovery image name in the <recovery_image_file.name> field.
• Reboor your phone from fastboot mode:

      $ fastboot reboot
