I got a work college going to Japan in a few days, and wondering if I should then pick something up there that isnβt available here, I was thinking like a shift knob or something small that could be carried

Its not hard just too many clips to remove. Should be able to, I'm only on H&R which is a mild drop.How was the bumper removal? You still able to go up ramps after the splitter install?
The shifter bushings would require removal of Intake, battery, and Charge pipes. So I'm doing all of these as part of "while I'm in there". modsLooks good! Did you actually have to remove the bumper to do the Bushings? Or was that just part of what you were doing anyhow?
You removed a lot more clips than you needed to remove haha. This got me my first time too but then I played around and figured it out next time I took it off. The piece that attaches the air dam to the car only needs the left most and right most clips removed. I believe I removed close to 10 clips total from the underside.Took my bumper off to install the following.

Any tips for removing the pieces by the headlights Iβm paranoid about scratching or breaking clips thereYou removed a lot more clips than you needed to remove haha.

I did what they did and it worked great. Semi-carefully just pull on each part, slide your hand closer to the next part to release and repeat. I was able to get my hand behind the bumper to push as well after getting the sides to release. You should probably mask off the headlights or at least a portion of them because once you get it released you have to deal with the sensors and the bumper will be sorta floppy.Any tips for removing the pieces by the headlights Iβm paranoid about scratching or breaking clips there
The most commonly broken part is the painted piece of the bumper above the headlights. Remove all of the clips at the top and then the painted part of the bumper slides out of a plastic bracket that is mounted to the fender. You just push down and in towards the center of the car and it should slide out. Common mistake is people getting frustrated/not knowing how it works and breaking the bumper section.Any tips for removing the pieces by the headlights Iβm paranoid about scratching or breaking clips there
Really excited to see the seats installed!Have my TSP downpipe arriving this Friday. Looking forward to installing it this weekend.
My Recaro seats are going through the customs process in Illinois, so hopefully theyβll be released soooooon.
