No, and a word of caution. For the install of Injen's CAI and AEM and now Nismo, the bumper will need to be removed for the install. Removing the bumber over a period of time can lead to eventual misaligned edges over time. When I need to perform cleaning maintenence on the filters I will jack up the front of car turn the wheel towards the inside and pop out the removable clip retainers on the plastic wheel well and pull it outward far enough to reach the filter, remove the screw and filter clean and reinstall. It's actually quicker than removing the bumper....only 4 (total) pop out clips versus a gazillion on the bumper removal.
