Do you really have to remove the front bumper to install cai,or can you just remove the fender as if you were changing the air filter?Thanks.

 

you don't have to remove the bumper or fender. just take out the headlight and headlight bracket. and unbolt the wheel well where it goes under the airbox, and that will give you enough room to take out the stock assembly and install the new one

 

yea, most the time this is quickest/easiest way to do it but, some intakes are tricky to fish through so its nice to take out the splash guard for the extra room.
