The bumper cover is held in place with numerous plastic fasteners located at the top and sides of the cover.  Remember to disconnect the...  Remember to disconnect the foglight harnesses and side marker lights.  Roush Performance Parts supplies...  Roush Performance Parts supplies additional hardware for installation of many items such as the new foglights.  The new lower lamps require...  The new lower lamps require new harness ends to get them to mate up with the factory wiring. Roush includes these with the kit, so you don't have to drag your car by its harness to the Ford dealership to get the correct terminals.  The turning marker lights...

Somewhere in transit from office to body shop, we managed to lose the supplied plastic grilles for the various openings in the Roush body kit. Motor City came to the rescue and installed a wire mesh.  We found that the new foglights...  We found that the new foglights were a bit deeper than the stock lights, and the passenger-side one came in contact with one of our intercooler charge pipes. We simply cut off 2 inches from each end, which moved the pipe toward the driver and out of the interference range.  Having an extra set of hands...  Having an extra set of hands is extremely helpful when installing the bumper covers.  The side skirts are fastened...

If you use some common sense in removing the bumper covers and not damage them in the process, you can always eBay the stock parts to help offset the cost of the body kit.

The new rear cover was mocked up so we could determine where we needed to cut the wire mesh. If you're using the supplied Roush grilles (which we lost), then you can skip the trimming step.
