Default What size is this? (GFX instructions)

Hey guys,

In the instructions for the GFX kit it shows different sizes of drill bits and a hole saw. Its a number with a zero in front. There is a slash through the zero.

Any ideas?

Thanks guys

Hey, you don't need to drill anything if you're installing the front lip. you're supposed to according to the instructions, but i just pulled those 2 metal clips out (they are held by double sided tape) and then it's just mount and screw on the bottom. this way when you remove it, your bumper will still be perfect

There's enough screws on the front lip, that you really don't need to install those screws that require the drilling. You don't need to be drilling the back bumper either. Most have installed it using just double sided tape. I installed mine as per the instructions, which entailed drilling a bunch of holes and enlarging the exhaust tip cutouts.

WARNING: If you decide to drill the back bumper, make sure to measure twice and cut once. And if you do it, make sure you really like the OEM GFX kit, because once you drill and cut the back bumper, there's no going back!!! (unless you replace the entire rear bumper skin)
