Want to install splitter...can't figure out how to remove front end!

Where are all the bolts to remove the front end? The instructions that came with the splitter are "lacking" at best...just says "remove front end".

Are you serious? Just look at it.. you will see the bolts/snaps. I don't know if you have to pull the bumper off but you will need to take the undertray off if that's the case.

Yeah, I think it's just the undertray. Unscrew/pop out all the little plastic screw-clips. It's a real pain in the ***, there are like 500 of them Then bolt the splitter onto the bottom of the car. Make sure it's on very well/tight.

Not sure how much you need to remove but this Evomoto link for FMIC install has detailed instructions for removal of the front bumper cover and brace. Should be more than what is required for a splitter installation.

Thanks for the quick replies...should make this a lot easier.

And I'm sure I COULD have figured it out by myself, but the last time I tried doing that (on a different car) I ended up undoing bolts that I THOUGHT held the bumper on but really didn't, etc...so I just wanted to make this as painless as possible.
