Default Speedtech 2.5 x-pipe installation

I will be installing a new Speedtech 2.5 x-pipe system with 200 cell cats on my 08 cab soon. Can an aftermarket exhaust system be installed without removal of the rear bumper cover?

I thought about trying but chose the easy way.
Jack the car up and just remove the wheels, inner liners, tail lights and the bumper. Honestly, it's easy and will save you time.
Maybe someone that does this a lot might be able to do it without taking the car apart, but I wasn't about to try.

I suppose you might be able to, but unless you do this all the time I dont think you'd want to try. I've done this job many times (swap exhaust on my car as well as two other friends) and taking the bumper off (as well as the intercoolers) makes access so much easier... much less cussing this way :-)
