Default AEM Intake is here!! Do you HAVE to remove the front bumper?

My AEM CAI just arrived. I have been looking it over and I don't really know if you have to remove the front bumper. I really don't want to because I JUST got it back and it is brand new with new paint. Also, would you have to remove the spoiler from the bumper to remove the bumper if I have to? I am limited on space and room, so if I can do it without removing the bumper and jacking up the car, that would be great. Does anyone know?
Thanks,
-Brandon

Yes you have to remove the spoiler if you remove the bumper...in all honesty removing the bumper only takes me like 5 minutes and that included the time to remove the spoiler...it ain't to bad!

Removing the bumper is hella easy. I can even do it.

It's just paint and it's just a piece of plastic, dude. It's going to get scratched up so just do it and make your install all the more easier. Just cuz you remove the bumper doesn't mean the paint's going to get messed up unless you do something stupid.

Good luck and let us know how the intake changes the characteristics of the ride.
