Removing the bumper isn't completely neccessary...the plastic undertray as well as the inner plastic fender guards have to be removed...and then the bolts can be accessed with the car lifted...it helps to have the wheels off to access the screws for the fender protectors......also a light helps to see what your doin under there once you get the plastics off...

thats alot of unnecessary work just to get the reflectors off...the bumper comes off in like 10 minutes...its easier just to pull the bumper

How about searching a little bit, there is a diy on this forum....you fukcin piece of siht.

Just kidding, i like to vent every once in a while and i usually take it out on the newbs that don't search a bit first since there is a banner of big bold letters at the top of the page when you are creating a new post asking if you searched first...which you obviously did not do.

https://my350z.com/forum/body-interior-exterior-and-lighting-diy/203246-how-to-front-bumper-removal-l-e-d-clear-corners-install-w-pix-ares-s-06-ccs.html

That is the write up for replacing them...pretty easy actually. I did mine in about an hour including finding the correct wires and testing the lights.
