I installed them on my LCI without removing the bumper. Pop the wheel arch and wheel well rivets and sneak your hand up under the fender to do the swap.

Don’t hv to remove bumper but I’m fairly competent in projects and I thought I was going to break my fenders using the pry tools and a blow dryer. It was one of the first things I changed on my vehicle after delivery. I thought the adhesive would be fairly easy to remove since they just built the entire vehicle two weeks prior. I would not want to do it again by any means but it looks great.

It’s definitely a PITA mod!

Did you removed the wheels?
I'm want to do it but don't have a jack or the lift.

No, just turn the wheel all the way to the side for clearance.
