Default removing front bumper

is it really as easy as a couple of bolts and some screwes?

I bought a cold air intake and it says you have to remove the front bumper??

anyone tell me otherwise??

Its a Fujita kit for a 06 tc

can someone give me some pointers of removing the bumper?

also,do i need help getting it off or can one person carry it?

bumpers are only a few lbs. The tC one is very very light. 2 screws on the sides, 4 buttons on the top. and then a few b buttons underattached to the splash guards.

Its very easy. Just when you put it on there is a slot where it goes in a slotted area that is attached to the head lights.

Also when you take the bumper off and all the screws and buttons are off you have to pull on the sides because its clipped to the fenders.

cai install doesnt require front bumper removal. u can just remove the front driver's wheel and the inner fender lining and you should have enough room for the install.
