Did you have to remove your bumper? I am assuming so, but if not, was this somehow aided by a lift?

reexamined

bar10dah, I took a look this evening, and didnt see any obvious gaps/holes/rubber grommets from the front bumper to the trunk seal (which IS a great spot for making the project "invisible") - what am I missing here?

Of course, I am attempting this with the bumper attached - would undoubtedly be easier with it off.
