would i need to remove the front bumper to install the spoon intake snorkle?

 

i didn't when i put mine in. but i had to with my password jdm intake

 

you dont have to remove it. all you need to remove and cut is the airguide

 

^that air guide, when i removed it, it required my to remove the bumper.

 

i just unhooked the top part then cut off half with a razor blade never removed the bumper install wasn't even 10 min

 

i used a sawzall on the airguide!
I've taken the airguide in and out without removing the bumper but it will bend your fingers up some

 

I got the air guide out leaving the bumper in place.
The snorkel is a bit tough to fit in there... well it was on my ap2. I actually trimmed a bit of kevlar from the bottom so it would actually fit. I also had to bend my AC lines and relocate the metal bar that ties the front of car. was a PITA to tell ya the truth. There is no way you can install in 10min so don't even try, don't listed to LcS2000. Take your time and it's cake.

 

after removing the air guide, i can take it in and out easily. and hum i did not have to bend any ac lines?
