Mild trimming of the bumper support, but no more than with the AMS or most other larger aftermarket units. If the shop takes their time it can be done without left over ragged edges, etc. Just a matter of working at it carefully. Unit bolts in place very solidly with the additional brackets provided. Snaps right in place afer the trimming. Under-tray goes back into place just like when you remove it. I give it a
