I believe it requires some amount of drilling, but many in the 2is forums have tried to simplify some of the steps involved. Try doing a search- you may learn that it's not that hard after all

I only have the front lip, which is a cinch to put on, although the instructions call for all sorts of drilling and measuring.

It requires you to cut part of the bumper off, and then drill holes for the screw.

Or you could over look the fact that it isnt 100% flush and just double sided tape it lol

Me and boys installedthe bumber.... its not hard at all...if you look on the inside of the bumper the places to drill are already pre-outlined. You just need some patience...and some good drill bits.

If I was around you I would have helped you

i just got out on an IS but am pretty familiar with that car inside and out now...

if you need help i live around broomall PA... i could help...

i never installed the rear though... i can help you with the front lip and side skirts... rear lip i would have to take a look at it... but i would never cut your bumper... i would double side tape it... cutting your rear bumper will obligate you to sell the GFX kit with the car if you ever decided to sell it
