How's front bumper removal for CIA install?

[AllLostThings]

I got my intake in the mail today but how's the bumper removal go? Is it a huge pain? I'd liek to install this myself but I'm not a huge fan of removing stuff like that. Thanks.

you do not need to take the bumper off to put in a CAI. just the under tray and part of the driver side inner wheel well

cool. i researched a bit and saw someone else say it wasn't totally nessary but that it did make it easier to get the tray out. this directions say to take off the bumper but i'll probaly just try to get it off without that step and save the trouble.

No the Mazdaspeed is a 2 piece intake so only the left front wheel needs to come off. I am not sure about the one piece types so I say follow the directions if unsure.

personally i did not remove the entire tray either. i just left the 3 screws along the passenger side in order to access the driver side.

I got the Fujita F5 CAI. It's a one peice tube and the filter.
