If you need, I can answer any questions you have. (feel free to PM) Good luck with the fitment- there's a little left to be desired, especially on the skirts.
For the front, I recommend removing the bumper and fitting the lip after propping the bumper face up on a couple of sawhorses. Be especially careful with the lip, as the CF gelcoat is prone to cracking if you bend the lip too much.
Bend the bumper around the lip rather than the lip around the bumper.
I used three pieces of 3m tape- one on each side of the bumper and one in the middle to affix the lip. I also used two screws on each side of the lip.
For the sides, just unbolt the stock pieces and pull. There will be tape holding it on up top. Reinstallation is the reverse. Fitment on the passenger side was pretty bad but I was able to squeeze it on. Drivers side was pretty good.
Use the stock body pieces for reference when it comes to drilling. There may also be some very small indentations on your new kit that shows where the screws may go. I can take some pictures if you need of my installed kit if you need.
