tail lights are really easy... just 2 screws per and then unplug em... rear bumper is a little more involve... just take your time and dont forget the nuts inside the trunk...

Question How to...

Ok I will try it again tomorrow. Its getting dark already and I'm tired too maybe that's why can't figure it out anymore. Done the side skirts and front bumper. The driver side skirt sucks, don't fit perfectly. Hope it will look good the way is it.

Hey I'm going to add a body kit too soon.

How did it go?
I switched my tail lights, that was fun. I am worried about the body-kit though.

please, comment back on what you did?
Was it as easy as taken out screws and putting them back in?

Thanks
