CJ, are you looking for a good body shop to do the install? What about NLP?

CJ350. Are you not handy with a Dremel, is that why you are looking for a place to install it? I am definitely not good when it comes to body work, but getting a hold of a template and a sideways cutting bit from Dremel made the job easy. I would attempt it yourself. Start small and cut to fit. Trust me, it was scarry for me too, but I did it. It actually was pretty painless. I would give it a try and save a lil bit of money. Just an idea. Happy Bumper cutting!!!

from what ive read any person with half a brain and a steady hand can install this thing. use an exacto knife, which will cut right through the bumper like a hot knife on butter.

A 10 dollar mini hand saw works nicely too, might need some sand paper to clean up the edges.

Also, might I suggest black anodized pop rivits for the install. They look a little nicer than the screws and make it nearly impossible to be stolen like my first one was. Remember to use small washers on the back though.

CJ, just in case you still don't want to attempt it yourself, I would highly recommend Auto Specialty in Longwood 407-834-5777. Good luck!

dude, you can cut through your front bumper like butter with a sharp razor knife. just do it, i think they give you a template with it



it is really easy and the varis duct is bigger than the hole and will cover up any rough edges...

CJ, I did mine, three weeks ago.. The hardest part is getting over cutting your bumper. I have the template and would be glad to help you do it if you want.. I'm in Winter Park.. Let me know..

CJ may I ask why you are putting the air duct on? Bring it to me we'll cut that bumper and install that duct just before we catch a buzz.

Damn right, I'm too much of a perfectionist and I know it won't be "just right".
