EuroPipe INstall Question

Do you need to remove the rear bumper to properly install a Europipe? I have 1 coming and I'm trying to decide who will do install. Some guys tell me the bumper needs to come off others say no....
Any advice?

just make sure u haev the right tools so u dont strip the bolts that are up on top holding the cats to the turbos... sometimes they dont want to come off easily... baked form heat... use some solvent to allow the bolts to come off easily...

I'm not doing it. I have 3 up Racing in Pasadena doing the work. Seems like a great guy. I'm excited, got my 19 IForgen on, Monday I'm doing PSS9, I ordered color keyed bumperetts and rear wiper delete from the plug guy.....I'm waiting on my K24's that Todd is going to rework...ECU....Greddy..., short shifter...I'm rocking...

Rear bumper removal is not necessary. I had my europipe fitted by my local mechanics (extremely trustworthy fellows) and they found it very straightforward to fit.
