Literally may take an hour TOPS. i did mine on my GT3 the night i brought it home. Maybe 8 bolts at the max... didn't even have to take off the bumper. If you have a semi mechanical friend they can do it with you...

Lol the shop said that they need to take off the bumper to make sure it’s 100%

Most shops like to take off the bumper. Flemington Porsche also will do it. It’s really simple to take off the bumper.

I have done all my exhausts, side deletes myself. Bring over a nice whiskey (Japanese prefered) and we can throw it on my lift and will show you how. I’m in Hunterdon county.

I did mine without taking the bumper off. Is it a bit more tight in there sure, but if you take your time and by time I mean an hour tops, it's pretty easy.

I just did this on Sunday. Took the bumper off to make things easier but a lift definitely isn't needed.

Glad to see this done up on a set of Race Ramps. I just purchased a used Sharkwerks from another RL member and will put it on myself without taking the bumper off. I, for one, appreciate everyone's input on this.

We would be glad to show you that we do in fact remove the bumper. Less chance of damaging anything on a $200k plus car.
We also upcharge on installing customer supplied parts.
