The sides have bolts on the underside; then just pop them off.
(there are hidden bayonet style clips)
The rear bumper has bolts that go through to the trunk
& hidden clips near the L. plate that are a little fiddley..
****Note****
the bayonet clips can come off the side sills.
Remove or tape in place B4 sending to the paint shop!

1. How come I got left over a couple of extra bolts and clips? I think I took too many off. Does the Aero bumper use less clips/bolts?

- It bolts up the same as the regular bumper.
- 2 bolts in each wheel wells + all the rest
- you need to take off the side marker bracket & pop-rivet to the Nismo
- there's 4 plastic duct pieces that come off (behind OEM)
- you need to trim about 1" from the bottom of the aluminum square stock at each end of the support frame.
It helps to have an extra pair of hands when putting on the car;
fittment is tight.
That's about it...
