Default Anybody know how to install Ground FX Kit?

I'm going to be installing my oem lip kit and i was reading on trd sparks the instructions on how to install the kit...wow seems confusing i was just wondering do i have to follow the steps that toyota does like cutting the bumper and stuff? is there anyway around this if i do a bunch of drilling? thanks

1) remove the 2 screws front and back.
2) remove all the pop in tabs on the bottom of the side skirt.
3 once u have all of those removed start to pull the skirt from the front. (there are like 5
pop in tabs that hold the front and middle on). after u get the front and middle part
popped off then pull the back of the skirt. its held on by a footlong black clip.
4) you're done.

if you look closely from the inside of both bumpers there are little rectangles where you can cut the holes for the lip kit.....don't cut too high tho, the front weather strip may not cover it and your screwed....i thnk they should have located those cutting rectangles a little lower.....and i did do it with a drill
