Just installed mine yesterday with my son. Not as easy as I thought (took about 4 hours) but that's coming from a guy who has never taken a bumper off in his life.

I did not remove the engine cover or cross bar either. (didnt have deep sockets and didnt want to go to sears to get them)

It wasnt too bad although I'm scared to death I did something wrong somewhere and I'll find out about it sometime in the next month while I'm driving.......

Hopefully not!!

I placed a piece of hose over the AC line and taped it in place. I guess when I have someone install my HFC's and CBE I'll take the bumper off again and check for any wear.

I will say that I noticed a difference when driving. Second gear, at 3500-4000 RPM was impressive. I don't have numbers to back it up, but it sure felt faster. (traction control light came on a well)
