Fronts
1.Installation is very easy. Place, a finger as picture at the rear of the light, and pull outwards. With just the right effort, it will pop free, remove the bulb, and transfer to the clear light. When reinstalling, ensure the tab is lined up in its hole, and press in as pictured until you hear the locking tab engage.

Rears
1. Begin by removing all of the panels in the trunk. You will find many small black "pop clips" holding them in. Once removed, start with the large plastic panel, pulling upwards, you will feel the clips disengage, allowing you to remove the panel. Once out, you will be able to remove the rest, one at a time.


2. Once all interior panels are removed, you will notice studs on either side, with 8mm nuts on them. You can see several of them already loose in the pictures. Remove this nuts. There are 2 hidden on each side, within the rear fender, the drivers side being very difficult to reach. You should remove 8 nuts(if I remember correctly). Once all nuts are removed, you will see a small wire harness on either side. Push the rubber washer through, towards the bumper, and unplug the electrical connector

3. Under the vehicle, you will need to remove all lower plastic clips holding the bumper to the carbon fiber, and side covers. You will also need to remove each side cover, this is done by removing the 10mm and 12mm bolts holding it in.

4. You will now need to remove the bolts and pop clips holding the fender liner to the rear bumper. Just remove those holding it to the bumper. Once removed, you can now access a 10mm bolt going upwards, right where the bumper meets the metal body work, it is silver. We have a picture of where the bolt goes, with the bumper removed to help aid in locating it. Remove from both sides.

5. Back under the vehicle, you will notice about 1 foot back from the rear tire, is a support going from the lower part of the bumper, up to the body work, held in place by a plastic pop clip, remove this clip. Again, here is the bracket with the bumper removed to aid in finding it.

6. Starting at the front of the bumper, near the wheels, pull the bumper cover directly outwards, try to get your hand as far back in as possible, to attempt to push the cover as well as pull. It will pop free of it's retaining clip. Do this to both sides. Now, from the top of the vehicle, gently pull straight back, working from either outside, and slowly going across the vehicle, you will hear/feel the bumper cover popping free of the retaining clips. In the picture you can see 4 of the retaining clips, and one of the connectors that needs to be unplugged.

7. It really helps to have a friend at this point, Each of you take a side, and pull slowly backwards, if all clips are free, the bumper will come back about 6 inch's, allowing you to unplug the contact switch and make sure the light connectors come through without any trouble. Once free, gently lay the bumper onto the blanket you have laid out.

8. Remove the two 10mm bolts, and one plastic clip holding the red side markers. Place Clear Reflectors in place, and reinstall fasteners. Here is a picture of the clear already installed

9. Take bumper, and reposition at the rear of the vehicle, plug in the contact switch connector, and feed the tail light harness through the body. Carefully align the studs, and gently bring the bumper forward. Starting from the center, push in, reengaging the locks, working outwards. Then install all other hardware, give a light cleaning, and away you go.

Pictures should be working, also going to rewrite, adding a step to remove the rear bumper lower lip, as it makes some of the access easier.

tried this today, for the life of me I cannot get the gear bumper off. Those retainer clip are really snug. After couple of hours trying to free up the bumper, dent the top of my bumper I gave up and put all the nuts and bolts back. Anybody want to buy a brand new set of rear clear.

Question: When popping out the front side marker, does it help to mask off the surrounding, for protection of scratch? I just think if you happen to pop it outward too forcefully/quick, the edge may scratch the bumper? Thanks

No masking need.

Not needed, the fronts pop out VERY easily. Just as shown in the picture, place your fingers at the rear of the marker, closest to the wheel and pull outward.
