Default Removing TRD front lip, replacing with CF RS1 Lip

Can anyone give me some information/tutorial-ish information on swapping out front lips on an 07 tC?

I searched but couldn't find much info helping me on this...

Take out the front bumper, the OEM front lip and rear both have clips on the inside so you would need to take them out so you can swap the front lip. Remember that the front bumper will have two or three holes that were made for the lip's clips. I'm not sure if when putting the new lip those holes are covered.

Yeah you will still see the holes from the oem lip, I would wait to see if bbist comes out with a cf oem lip kit, they are supposed to be working on it. This way you can just swap with out having to spend money on have the holes fixed.
