parts are here!

Got paid last week so decided to spend some money on my new toy!
Got some black lexus style lights and got them fitted. Also got itg maxogen induction kit looks hard to fit tho, do u have 2 take the bumper off 2 fit like it says in the instructions or is there a easy way? Im no expert at fitting stuff but fitting a k and n on my old car (218 coupe) was a 5 minute job! This seems alot harder!

You can fit it with the bumper on, but I prefer to remove it as it saves alot of arsing about! You'll need to remove the resonator box and OE filter assembly, that is the difficult bit as the resonator has fiddly to get at fixings.
